David’s 3 mindset messages:
  1. We are spiritual beings having a human experience
  2. As Viktor Frankl said, between stimulus and response there is a space and time in which we are free to choose our response
  3. Our mindset and our thoughts create the world that we experience.
Food 
David wanted to be surprised. He said: “Surprise me! I love food and eat anything but liver.”
 
It is not the first time that my guest wanted to be surprised and usually that poses a bigger challenge because there are a plethora of choices. To narrow down I tune in to my intuition and follow it’s lead when making a choice. So, I was browsing for various recipes, and I came up to lamb kotlet. It felt right! 
 
I really wanted to eat that dish myself and I imagined it would taste fresh, flavoursome, and be full of nutritional goodness.
 
I decided to serve these kotlets with pitta bread, red cabbage slaw made with vinegar and fresh herbs alongside Japanese picked tomatoes that I shared in Episode 1. This particular recipe of kotlets is Persian, but I often change my recipes to add more colours or flavours. So I merged Persian & Moroccan recipes, by adding mint and coriander to the lamb. 
Here are Persian & Moroccan recipes.
