Hi, I'm Maha

I grew up in a kitchen where cooking was an everyday act of love. My family meals were always made from scratch — from rich Middle Eastern stews to freshly baked bread — and I learned that the best food comes from simple ingredients prepared with care. That foundation shaped everything I cook today.

I started sharing recipes on TikTok in 2024 because I wanted to show people that homemade food doesn't need to be intimidating. The response was incredible — it turns out there are a lot of people out there who want to cook real meals but don't know where to start. That's exactly who I make these recipes for.

Simply by Maha grew out of that same idea. This site is where every recipe I share lives in full detail — complete ingredient lists, step-by-step instructions, and the tips I've picked up from making each dish over and over. I test every recipe at home before publishing it, because I want you to have the same results I do.

Whether you're a university student learning to cook, a parent trying to get dinner on the table, or someone who just loves trying new recipes — I hope this site makes your time in the kitchen a little easier and a lot more enjoyable.
