DUBAI: While most people may know Yasmin Al-Mulla as the brainchild behind womenswear label YNM Dubai, some may be surprised to discover that the Emirati designer is a staunch health advocate with stealth cooking skills– which she routinely puts on display by way of her Instagram account @yasminalmulla. For the latest updates, follow us on Instagram @arabnews.lifestyle The culinary enthusiast, who gained a following for her nutritious, simple-to-make and highly-photogenic dishes, explains that she just wants to “change the common misconception of healthy food in the Middle East.” “I want to encourage healthy lifestyles in all aspects by promoting nutritional education and raising health awareness in any possible way. I’m on a one-woman mission to change what people believe ‘healthy’ is,” she said to Arab News. Perhaps, this is why she only incorporates high-quality, organic ingredients into her Instagrammable dishes that taste just as good as they look. Below, Al-Mulla reveals one of her favorite recipes to enjoy this Ramadan: baked sweet potato fries with a Middle Eastern twist. “Sweet potatoes pack a powerful nutritional profile. They’re rich in potassium, vitamin A, vitamin C and vitamin B6. Not to mention that they’re an excellent source of healthy carbohydrates,” explains Al-Mulla. What’s more, the dish is gluten, dairy and refined sugar-free, meaning that it won’t leave you feeling lethargic or bloated after iftar. Ingredients: Large sweet potato 1 teaspoon dried coriander 1 teaspoon organic mixed herbs 1 teaspoon zaatar 1 teaspoon sumac Pinch of salt 1/2 teaspoon paprika 1 teaspoon olive oil Directions: 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees celsius. 2. Slice your potato into thin pieces and place in a large bowl. 3. Sprinkle everything except for the zaatar and sumac, and toss lightly making sure your potato slices are perfectly seasoned. 4. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. 4. Let the potatoes cool for five to 10 minutes, then sprinkle with zaatar and sumac. 6. Enjoy with your choice of dipping sauce.
