In My Egypt, Mina brings readers to contemporary Cairo and Alexandria to share the foundations of Egyptian cooking and hospitality, from the traditional breakfast of ful medames to the streetside meal of baladi bread stuffed with spiced hawawshi. He also marries Egyptian flavors with influences from around the world in dishes, from Harissa Ratatouille to Halloumi and Watermelon Salad. This is the story of a lauded chef at the top of his game, triumphantly returning to his roots.

The cookbook will be available starting October 8th, but is available to preorder on Amazon.
