Wonderfully fragrant beef, comforting lentils and rice, and a fresh, zippy salad make up this tasty and nutritious Lebanese meal that's simple to whip up for dinner
Fragrant beef, hearty lentils and rice, and a fresh salad make up this tasty Lebanese meal
I’ve had a few Lebanese cookbooks out from the library lately and have been enjoying trying a few new recipes (like the Lebanese feast I made a few weeks ago).
The shawarma and lentil and rice recipes are from a great cookbook called The Lebanese Kitchen: Quick and Healthy Recipes by Monique Bassila Zaarour.
I made a few omissions because I couldn’t find the mastic or sumac called for in the shawarma recipe. It still turned out wonderfully and is definitely a meal I’ll make again.
I am especially in love with the lovely fresh parsley salad I made up, which was inspired by tabbouleh. I was happy to find another use for leftover parsley.
