About Cook with Yara

Hi, I'm Yara. Cook with Yara is where I share the Mediterranean and Levantine cooking I grew up around — dishes built on fresh herbs, warm spices, olive oil, and the kind of food that brings people to the table.

What you'll find here

Every recipe is written to be easy to follow at home: clear ingredients, step-by-step instructions, cook times, and the little details that make a dish work. From quick weeknight dinners to slow weekend bakes, the goal is food that's approachable, generous, and worth making again.

Our kitchen values

The recipes here are family-friendly and halal — no pork or alcohol in any dish. We focus on wholesome, widely-loved ingredients so the recipes work for as many home cooks as possible.
