Persiana
Persiana is Ghayour's debut cookbook, and was released in May 2014. It is a celebration of the food and flavours from the regions around the Southern and Eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea.[3] Although some recipes in the book are authentic, some draw inspiration from the Middle East and combine the wonderful flavours and ingredients of the region with everyday produce available in supermarkets everywhere.
Persiana spent nine weeks in the top 10 best-seller list and won the Observer Food Monthly's 2014 Best New Cookbook award in October.[4]
