kibbeh is a traditional Middle Eastern dish made primarily from ground meat, usually lamb or beef, mixed with bulgur wheat, spices, and herbs. The mixture is often shaped into balls or patties and can be served raw, baked, or fried. It is a staple in many countries, including Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan. There are various regional variations of kibbeh, with some featuring fillings of nuts or additional spices. One popular version is kibbeh nayyeh, which is served raw and seasoned with olive oil and spices. Kibbeh is often accompanied by yogurt or salad, making it a flavorful and nutritious dish.
