KIBBEH RECIPE (HOW TO MAKE KIBBEH)
In this kibbeh recipe, a mixture of bulgur wheat, onions, and ground beef forms a hollow shell for a delicious stuffing. Enveloped in warm and earthy Middle Eastern spices like allspice and ground cinnamon, kibbeh is the epitome of Middle Eastern comfort food. The kibbeh croquettes can be deep fried or baked, and are often served as mezze or side dish. See more on kibbeh and the step-by-step tutorial below!

Steps:
- Cover a fine mesh strainer with a light cloth (a cheesecloth, if you have one). Add the bulgur wheat in, then place the strainer into a bowl filled with water. Let the fine bulgur wheat soak in the water for 15 minutes, then pull the cloth, holding the bulgur, and squeeze all the water out. You may do this a couple of times until you are sure the bulgur is rid of water. Set aside for now.
- Now make the kibbeh (the actual dough that you will later use to form the kibbeh shells). Put the onion, ground beef, spices and pinch of salt into the bowl of a large food processor. Process until the meat is very finely ground almost into a paste. Transfer the meat mixture into a large bowl and add the bulgur wheat. Use damp hands to combine the bulgur with the meat mixture to make a dough. Cover and refrigerate until later.
- Now make the filling. Heat about 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet or frying pan. Saute the onion until just golden, then add the ground beef. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the meat is fully browned. Add the toasted pine nuts, the spices, and the salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
- Remove the kibbeh dough from the fridge.
- To stuff the kibbeh, you need to have damp hands. Place a small bowl of water next to you. Prepare a baking sheet and line it with parchment paper.
- With both the bowl of kibbeh dough and the filling near, you can begin stuffing the kibbeh. Dampen your hands with some water, take a handful of the kibbeh dough (about 2 tbsp or so) and form into somewhat of an oval-shaped disc in the palm of one hand. Use your finger to make a well in the middle of the disc, and gradually hallow the disc out to make a larger well or hole for the filling. Using a spoon, add about 1 tablespoon of the filling. Seal the dough on top and, using both hands, carefully shape it into an oval (football-type shape). Place the stuffed kibbeh on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat the stuffing steps until you run out, be sure to have damp hands throughout.
- Chill the stuffed kibbeh for 1 hour.
- Heat the oil in a deep frying pan to 350 degrees F (you'll want the oil hot enough that you can see some gentle bubbling, but not too hot where it will burn the kibbeh shells). Deep-fry the kibbeh in the hot oil, in batches being carefully not to crowd them, until the kibbeh shells are brown (about 5 minutes or so). With a slotted spoon or tongs, carefully remove the kibbeh and place them on a pan lined with paper towel to drain. Repeat until you have fried all the stuffed kibbeh.
- Serve hot or at room temprature with tahini sauce, tzatziki sauce or plain Greek yogurt. Enjoy!

This mixture can be formed into patties, but it is just as wonderful and a lot easier to spread in a baking dish, served by the spoonful.

Steps:
- Place the bulgur in a bowl, mix with 1/4 teaspoon salt and cover with hot water. Let sit for 20 to 30 minutes until the bulgur is tender and has absorbed all the liquid.
- Meanwhile, steam the squash above 1 to 2 inches of boiling water for 15 to 20 minutes until thoroughly tender. Remove from the heat, allow to drain for five to 10 minutes and then mash with a fork or a pestle.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium-low heat, and add the onion. Cook gently for 10 to 15 minutes until golden and very tender. Stir often. Add the ground cumin and a pinch of salt, and stir together for about 30 seconds. Stir into the bulgur. Add the pureed squash and stir together, then transfer to a bowl.
- Knead the mixture in the bowl with the back of a spoon or with a pestle for a few minutes. Stir in the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, the parsley and the mint. Taste and adjust salt, and add freshly ground pepper. Spoon into a lightly oiled baking dish. Serve at room temperature, or heat through in a 325-degree oven until warm.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 200c/fan 180c/gas 6. Toss the squash and red pepper in the harissa paste and oil. Spread the chunks out on a large baking tray and roast for 20 mins until softened and the edges of the vegetables are starting to char.
- Meanwhile put the bulgur wheat in a large bowl and pour over the hot stock, then cover tightly with cling film and leave to absorb the liquid for 15 mins until the grains are tender, but still have a little bite. In a separate bowl, mix the garlic and lemon juice into the yogurt and season to taste.
- Let the bulgur wheat cool slightly then toss in the roasted vegetables, chickpeas and spinach - the leaves may wilt a little. Season, if you want, drizzle with the garlicky yogurt and serve warm.

LENTIL AND BULGUR PILAF WITH GREEN AND YELLOW SQUASH
This is typical of lenten dishes from Lebanon. Rich in fiber and nutrients, it makes for a wonderful one dish meal or a substantial side dish. The original comes from a 1997 issue of Eating Well magazine but has been modified to suit my tastes. If you replace the chicken broth with vegetable broth, this is a vegan dish as well.

BULGUR AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH
Bulgur is more nutritious than rice and couscous, and you can use it in so many recipes, i.e. soups, baking, pilafs, or as stuffing. This recipe is a take off of the more traditional barley and squash dish, but it's healthier, lower in fat and wonderful. This is also a low glycemic dish. You can serve this as a side to meat, or serve as is with a side salad and some apple slices.
