Hi, I’m Fatimah!
The heart and hands behind Falasteeni Foodie! As a Palestinian American, I was fortunate enough to grow up surrounded by the rich, comforting flavors of my Arab heritage. I spent part of my childhood in the Middle East (hi Jordan!) and the rest in sunny California, which opened my eyes to a world of international cuisines. What started as a personal journey to preserve my mom and grandma’s recipes has now evolved into a blog where I recreate Palestinian dishes with a dash of global flair.
At 22, I knew I wanted to make sure these beloved recipes were never lost. Now at 27, I’m still on that mission—proving that age is just a number when it comes to learning how to cook amazing food. Whether you’re young, old, or somewhere in between, I hope FalasteeniFoodie inspires you to dive into the kitchen, roll up your sleeves, and create meals that remind you of home.
It all started with a craving. You know, that deep, nostalgic longing for a dish your mom used to make—the one that could transport you back to childhood in a single bite. For me, that feeling led to the birth of Falasteeni Foodie.
Growing up between the Middle East and California, I was blessed to experience the vibrant world of Palestinian home-cooking, while also discovering flavors from other cultures. I quickly realized that food is more than just sustenance—it’s a bridge between memories, family, and new adventures.
What began as a personal recipe journal has evolved into a space where I not only share beloved Palestinian classics but also experiment with fusion dishes inspired by my global upbringing. Falasteeni Foodie is about blending tradition with creativity, and I’m excited to share these flavors with you!
