Cut up fat meat small: melt tail and throw out sediment, then place the meat in it together with a little salt and ground dry coriander, and fry lightly until browned and fragrant. Then cover with water, adding green coriander leaves and cinnamon-bark; when boiling, skim off the scum. When little liquor is left, throw in a few halved onions, a dirham of salt, and two dirhams of dry coriander, cumin, cinnamon, pepper, and mastic, all ground fine. Mince red meat as described above and make into light cabobs, then add to the pot. Take eggplant, cut off the stalks, and prick with a knife: then fry in fresh sesame oil, or melted tail, together with whole onions. When the meat is cooked, a little murri may be added if desired. Color with a pinch of saffron. Put the fried eggplant in layers on top of the meat in the pan, sprinkle fine ground dry coriander and cinnamon, and spray with a little rose water. Wipe the sides of the saucepan and leave over the fire an hour to settle, then remove.

You know what I ate for dinner last night?

Sour cream mixed with Tahini in equal proportions, then I added fresh coriander leaves, and Spelt flour, then baked it into a biscuit.

I had been so craving fat, that my digestion was remarkably adept at getting into a better frame of mind from it. I only became a little thirsty.

OMGGG i never ever thought i would find the recipe for this!! i looooove it! everyone makes it in yemen....in englsih i dunno prolly called "honey cake" in ARABIC its Bint al sahn, or Qurs al Sahn...its all cool.

Ingredients:
1 packet dry active yeast
1/4 c warm water
3 c. flour
1 t. salt
4 large eggs, beaten well
3/4 c. ghee (see full listing of recipes)
Melted ghee or butter , for serving
warm honey, for serving

[SIZE=+1]Instructions: [/SIZE]
Dissolve yeast in the warm water. Into a large mixing bowl sift the flour and salt. Make a well in center of the flour mixture. Pour beaten eggs and the yeast mixture into the well in center of the flour mixture. Stir to blend and then kneed well. Slowly mix in the 1/4 c. warm melted ghee, continuously kneed dough throughout this process. Continue kneading until dough is smooth and elastic. If dough seems to dry add a small amount of water at a time. Flour your hands and dive the dough into 16 balls about the size of a large egg. On a lightly floured board place a dough ball and form into a very thin round shape, using the heel of your hand. A rolling pin may be used. Brush a baking sheet with ghee. Place the completed round on the baking tray and brush well with melted ghee. Shape 7 more rounds. After completing each round place on top of the previous round, press the edges with fingertips and brush well with ghee. Repeat this process with the other 8 rounds . You will have 2 stacks on the baking sheet, be sure to brush the last round with the ghee. Let rest in a warm place for 45 minutes. Bake in a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for 25-30 minutes until light golden brown. If you tap the base of the tray there should be a hollow sound to indicate the cakes are done.

Best way to eat:Serve hot with generous amounts of melted butter and warm honey on top

Note: The traditional way of eating this is to break off pieces with the fingertips and dip into butter and honey that remains on the serving platter. It may also be served by cutting it into wedges and spooning butter and honey remaining on the serving platter over top.

Haselnut Sweet
1 kilo Roasted haselnut
Sugar syrup

Mix 2 cups sugar with one cup water and one teaspoon lemon juice.

Boil the mixture till it thickens and sticks on the back of the spoon (or, when you drop a small amount of the syrup in cold water, it forms a firm ball).

Put the haselnuts over the syrup and stir for five minutes on low heat.

Grease an 8 inch square pan with butter.

Pour the haselnut mixture in it and leave it to cool for 10 minutes.

Cut the sweet into one inch square pieces and offer them with a cup of hot coffee.

INGREDIENTS
1 (14 ounce) package spring roll wrappers
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds ground beef
1 leek, chopped
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground cardamom
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon water, or as needed
1 quart oil for frying


DIRECTIONS
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, leek and garlic, and cook, stirring until the onions are transparent. Add ground beef, and cook until about halfway done. Season with cumin, cardamom, salt and pepper. Mix well, and continue cooking until beef has browned.
In a small dish or cup, mix together the flour and water to make a thin paste. Using one wrapper at a time, fold into the shape of a cone. Fill the cone with the meat mixture, close the top, and seal with the paste. Repeat until wraps or filling are used up.
Heat the oil to 365 degrees F ( 170 degrees C) in a deep-fryer or deep heavy pot. There should be enough oil to submerge the wraps. Fry the Sambusa a few at a time until golden brown. Remove carefully to drain on paper towels.
