Mehadrin Extra Light Ice Cream

By Kosher Guru / August 17, 2019

Guiltless, guilty pleasures!

I must admit I’ve been trying to watch my figure lately. I still go out to eat at some amazing places, but I’m trying to make better decisions. I even started a beginner spin class every Monday that I look forward to. However being that it’s summer there are certain things I just won’t give up. I grew up with ice cream always available in the freezer. When I go back to my childhood home, my kids know that my parents have a freezer stocked with just ice cream and nothing else. So in the spirit of making better choices I also found Mehadrin extra light ice cream which is still creamy, delicious and indulges the ice cream lover in me. My favorite is the vanilla caramel swirl. The entire container in only 320 calories, so if I find myself in an ice cream binge I have no guilt eating the entire container! So try and enjoy the rest of the summer and with the help of Mehadrin the guiltless, guilty pleasures.

Za’atar Fries With Garlic Tahini Sauce By Vanessa Haberman|@platesandpetals

Foodie Spotlight

By Kosher Guru / August 6, 2019

When it comes to dinners for the nine days, I like to go Mediterranean. The food is mostly light and fresh vegetable forward, simple to prepare, and leaves you feeling good (maybe good enough to indulge a bit for dessert?)
These Oven Baked Za’atar Fries are light yet filling, packed with a flavor punch, and pair well with fish-especially roasted or grilled salmon, or incorporate them as part of a falafel bar-think falafel, Israeli salad, sliced cabbage with a squeeze of lemon, roasted eggplant, and these hot crispy baked fries. Oh and about a bucketful of your favorite tahini. However you serve them, they will be crispy, delicious, and bursting with flavor!

Oven Baked Za’atar Fries with Garlic Tahini Dipping Sauce

Save Recipe

Ingredients

2 Russet Potatoes, washed well
About 1 tbsp. Za’atar
Pinch of sea salt
Oil for drizzling

Garlic Tahini Sauce

1 cup tahini
1/4 cup room temperature water
1 cloves minced garlic (or a generous sprinkle of garlic powder if you prefer)
Juice of half a lemon
1/4 tsp salt, add to taste

Fries

Slice potatoes into planks lengthwise, and then cut into fries lengthwise to desired thickness. I like them thin so they get extra crispy! Place on a parchment lined baking sheet misted with olive oil, and gently must the tops of the potatoes. Sprinkle generously with Za’atar and sea salt.
* You can also partially bake them and then add the Za’atar if you prefer, to give it extra oomph of baked in flavor. 425 about 20 minutes or until crisp to your liking, depending on thickness.
While they bake, make your dipping sauce!

Garlic Tahini Sauce

Mix in a jar and serve in a small bowl for dipping, or place into a squeeze bottle for extra drizzling!
Scatter chopped parsley onto the fries if desired.

Notes

Pairs well with simply grilled or roasted salmon, as part of a falafel bar (think falafel, Israeli salad, sliced cabbage, roasted eggplant, and these!!!), or just as an addition to whatever else you’re serving, especially if it’s Mediterranean. Enjoy!!
