Thanks Anita, thanks for your suggestions.
I feel like you know a lot of these lebanese dishes that can "fit" my tastes, and also, I am very interested in Arab dishes, because they do not often require meat, use Mediterranean vegetables and spices, so for me in Italy it is quite easy to find the ingredients.
I am crazy about cuscus, but to be honest, the pre-cooked type. Anyway, it has much in common with pasta, because you can feel satiated with a small amount of it and you can "play" with many sauces, and easy variations are always possible when you do not really feel like cooking or you do not have much time.
I want to ask you, and perhaps it is better for me to post a special message for this subject, if you know a small tree whose branches are powdered and used as a strong bowel cleansing. It is black and is almost tasteless and a friend of mine coming from Ethiopia calls it "seebri", something like that. She does not know the Italian or English equivalent, and it is a dialect word, so I think it is not easy to find out...
Anyway, thank for your help and have a nice...meal!
Bye, Claudia
