I rolled a random country online and got Lebanon. So, today I am going to try cooking some Lebanese dishes. I'll show you how to cook kibbeh, sfouf, and make Lebanese radish salad. My friends are going to come over in the evening to try the result.

I will start with the sfouf. It's a turmeric pie. Mix one cup of warm milk with one cup of sugar.

Add half a teaspoon of ground anise (I only had seeds, so I did my best with the pestle), a teaspoon of turmeric, and half a cup of sunflower oil. Whisk it together.

In a separate bowl mix 1.5 cups of flour with 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder. That's a lot of baking powder.

Mix the flour with the milk mixture, and add half a cup of semolina.

Blend it into a homogeneous batter.

Pour it into a baking mold.

Top it with one tablespoon of sesame seeds.

Did you grease the baking pan?

Preheat the oven to 180°C and bake the thing for 35-40 minutes.
A woman is throwing a loud fit outside. My neighbors rarely talk in a normal way.
No, I did not. It's a single use mold, I am not sure that greasing it is required.

What is that lady yelling about? Plus, that looks good with a meat dish desu

I'm not sure. She's just mad about her family in general, so she's yelling and venting
Now it's time to make the main dish. I've found several different recipes of Lebanese kibbeh, so I don't know which one is the closest to the real thing. I forgot to defrost the beef, so I'll have to microwave it. Also, the dish is usually made with bulgur wheat, but I couldn't track it down in the shops. People online say that it can be replaced with farro, so I'll do that.

I have kitchen scales now. Really convenient. We need 400g of beef or lamb.

Attached: 20190713_142600.jpg (3264x2448, 1.91M)

I'll try defreezing it in cold water. Also, I lied - we need 600g, not 400g.

Comfy thread
Based Russian cooking man

While the meat is defreezing, you have to let 200g of bulgur/farro soak in water for 30 minutes. I love my kitchen scales.

Attached: 20190713_143618.jpg (3264x2448, 2.32M)

I was skeptical about the defreezing in cold water thing, but it actually worked wonderfully. That's neat.

Drain the water from bulgur/farro.

you did not factor in the wight of the cup

Peru, Zimbabwe, China, New Zealand, Mauritius, Dominica, Turkmenistan. I think that's all of them. And showed some non-national dishes too, like cinnamon buns, baked turkey, and so on.

I did. You can set the zero point with an empty cup.

I really like you cookanon, вoт кoт для тeбя

Had some trouble with meat. The meatgrinder's knife is absolutely dull, so I had to give up and use a blender.

A tuna casserole and a pavlova.

Cut the onion. I can barely see what I am typing.

Now fry a third of the onion pieces for a bit. Notice the lack of grease stains.

You're one of the few based posters on Jow Forums

On a different pan fry 100g of cedar nuts.

Add one third of the ground beef to the onions and fry together for 2-3 minutes.
Thank you.

making arab food with russian shit LOL, don't try so hard dmitry it will turn to be shit.

Now combine deez nuts with the onions and ground meat, mix them, and let them cool.

Now blend the rest of the onions with a little bit of water into a homogeneous slush.

Pour this pure testosterone on the rest of the ground beef.

Can't believe you chose kibbi anyway, you're not supposed to eat that shit alone, its a secondary meal served next to something much heavier.

In two portions, mix in the drained bulgur/farro. Using hands here is surprisingly satusfying.

Attached: 20190713_160438.jpg (3264x2448, 2.08M)

Add 2.5 teaspoons of salt, 1.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, and 0.25 teaspoon of red pepper.

Why not? The ingedients are the same and available everywhere

it wont taste authentic, also lebanese food is shit, especially kibbeh.

>it wont taste authentic
Don't see why it couldn't lol.

>Lebanese food is shit
Ok show us some of your jordanian food

Now make meatballs and fill them with the prefried mixture. It's difficult. They are supposed to be smaller. I'll bake them for longer than the recipe says.

Attached: 20190713_162456.jpg (3264x2448, 2.41M)

OH NO NO NO NO NO BAKE AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA

the entire fucking thing is wrong btw, you're supposed to fill the fried meat and onion in a groat mix.
mansaf

>1 dish
>any proper lebanese lunch has 10
ok

alright name some lebmutt foods so i can tell you how shit they are

Looks like the mold didn't really need greasing after all. It came off perfectly.

also here u go mutt, just 1 google search and i find some jordanian food for u, there is so much i didn't even bother remembering it on memory.

migrationology.com/jordanian-food/

There's some filling left. I will fry it some more and add it to pasta or something else tomorrow.

Attached: 20190713_163552.jpg (3264x2448, 2.11M)

The cutlets go into the oven preheated to 200°C for 40 minutes. I will leave them there for an hour, at least.

Kibbe
These ground meat empanadas
These spinach empanadas
Labne
Taboule
Baba Ganush
Hummus
Sujuk
Chicken livers in pomegranate sauce
Most are not strictly lebanese but they cook it perfectly

You made a mistake by rolling Arabic food OP. You've inadvertently attracted cancerous Arab posters to your thread.

Labne
Taboule
Baba Ganush
Hummus

all levantine food, kibbe is originally syrian, what the fuck is "empanada" ? anyway pastries are also levantine in general, sujuk translates to sausage in arabic, which most countries have, chicken liver in jordan is more popular and way better, so shut the fuck up you dumb frenchoid, lebanon should not exist, even as a fake country.

stfu

For the salad we need a cup of walnut halves. Toast them a bit on a dry pan.

nice thread

Cut 1 pound of radish into thin slices. I only have half a pound, so I will halve everything else.

Attached: 20190713_170344.jpg (3264x2448, 2.15M)

Why are you so butthurt about Lebanon?
Bravo it's levantine food I wouldn't have figured out.

ok that's based, eat those slices with lemon juice and a lot of salt, they are best snacks.

For the dressing combine half a teaspoon of honey, two teaspoons of lemon juice and three tablespoons of olive oil.

Are you professional chef? You are very good at making food :)

stop obsessing over things you dont understand, "lebanese food" is not a thing.

Thanks. No, it's just a hobby.

i read one of his tweets some time ago where he urges all lebanese to not use "shukran" because it is arabic but instead to merci or "yeslamo", yeslamo also being arabic LOL, this guy is a fraud.

Unironically the best poster of Jow Forums, have a bump fren

monitoring this thread, me

thx

İ'm talking about the Russianon you imbecile

wtf you re the one obsessed in this thread
I like lebanese/levantine food and there's nothing wrong about it

Mashed potatoes will be served with the kibbeh.

Yeslamo is syriac, retardoid. God, go back to Arabia, please. You don't belog in Levant.

nooooooooooooooo

Nope, it literally translates to "may they be safe" referring to your hands for whatever you have done with them, also that seething mongrel prefers being french than arab, his delusion is hilarious.

Chop the walnuts coarsely and chop 20 mint leaves. This salad made me very excited when I found the recipe. I wonder how the combination of mint, nuts, and radish will taste.

Attached: 20190713_172059.jpg (3264x2448, 1.98M)

no such thing as lebanese food bro

I had a female Lebanese friend who used to cook for me often. I think she used to make this salad.

Lebanon is not Arab, imbecile.

Cope, ar*bist

No it is not, thank allah, those mongrels have no identity, too bad they all talk arabic though, sometimes people mistake them for arabs.

What's been your favorite and least favorite dish you've made so far?

Kibbeh is out of the oven. Smells great. I hope it baked through well enough.

If the outside is any indication it did. Surely you pre-heated the oven? If so there shouldn't be an issue.

literally looks like shit, cant tell if your fault or if its just a bad dish.
