Aug 31, 2026 | While most combinations of leftover dishes just don't work, this dish was born from a happy accident during recipe testing; pomegranate molasses glazed meatballs served over a creamy roasted aubergine dip. Pairing sharp sweet and sour flavours against something rich and smoky in a way that isn't traditionally Lebanese, but tastes like it should be.

Mar 11, 2026 | Kufta B'Siniyeh literally translates to "kufta in a tray." Siniyeh is the Arabic word for tray, and the "B" is short hand for "bil" which means "in". So literally ‘kufta in a tray’.
This is what a majority of people like me grew up with. Some sort of oven-baked kufta with potatoes, tomatoes, and. Sometimes, onions. It's the most basic way you can prepare kufta. So, for that reason, I think it's also a very, very easy way to step into the world of our cuisine.
It's really quite simple to do, so I hope you will give it a try.
