Potato Kibbee - Veggie

[Guest guest]

Now, the Aunties do not all agree on how to do this... So this is a

compendium recipe (Moroccan, Egyptian, Lebanese & Turkish!!!!). But

the proportions are right. Fiddle with the spices till you have

something you like. A little too much salt for me. I would probably

double the spices!!!!

Thank you for such an interesting recipe - what kind of a texture does this

have? Is it moist? I'm guessing it's a main dish? What kinds of things

would go well with this?

 

Can't wait to try it!

I'll have to try this. My wife is half Lebanese and said her grandma

used to make Kibbe for her ffamily quite often. We hav etried a few

recipes mostly with bulgar bit she said that it does not taste like

the ones her grandma made. We'll give this a shot. This one sounds

good.

 

\Thanks
