Mediterranean influences from Greek, Lebanese, Moroccan and Italian cuisines are common since 1950s.Fresh produce readily available and used extensively. The trend urged by long-term government health initiatives is towards low- salt, low- fat healthy cookery incorporating lean meat, lightly cooked, colourful, steamed or stir-fried vegetables.
