This collection of traditional Ramadan recipes has everything you need for a nourishing and satisfying iftar(the meal to break the fast)—from comforting soups and refreshing salads to rich, hearty mains and sweet desserts.

After a long day of fasting, nothing compares to that first bite during iftar, when you feel your energy is finally restored. But iftar isn’t just about the food you eat. It’s a time to gather with my loved ones, both family and friends, to share our traditions, and to enjoy comforting iftar dishes passed down from my grandma and my grandma’s grandma.
My collection of Ramadan recipes includes classic Lebanese iftar recipes that are rich in flavor and so satisfying. From light and refreshing salads like fattoush and warm, aromatic soups to hearty side dishes like batata harra, high-protein mains like shish tawook, and irresistible desserts, these Ramadam meals make every iftar a feast to look forward to.
