What makes Ottolenghi, Ottolenghi?

Jessie McDonald and Tilly Reith chat to development chef, food writer, chickpea enthusiast and Queen of Middle Eastern feasts, Noor Murad. Bahraini-born Noor is a chef whose international work experience eventually brought her to the Ottolenghi family.

Noor developed recipes for the books ‘Falastin’ and ‘Flavour’, as well as for Ottolenghi’s Masterclass series and other online Ottolenghi publications. Having trained in New York, Noor became one of the creative forces at the heart of the Ottolenghi test kitchen where she’s been working since 2016.
