It is typically made from whole grain durum wheat that has been coarsely ground\, soaked\, steamed and dried\, a process that enhances its shelf life and nutritional profile. Compared to white rice\, bulgur has more fiber and protein\, a lower glycemic index\, and higher levels of most vitamins and minerals. \nBurgul behommos is very ancient dish in Syria\, and especially well known in the city of Lattakia. It is a festive dish which many Syrians take pride in cooking for family gatherings and celebrations. Chicken and chickpeas are boiled with spices and set aside. Then the burgul is cooked in the rich chicken broth\, before being re-combined with the chickpeas and topped with the deboned chicken and roasted almonds. It is traditionally served along with a selection of pickles. \n[vegetarian] Burgul behommos برغل بحمص بالخضار\nBurgul and chickpeas cooked in a vegetable stock\, topped with a generous portion of chickpeas\, with green peppers\, carrots\, and roasted almonds. \nSaltett hindbeh سلطة هندبة أو هندباء \nA salad of fresh dandelion greens with tomatoes\, onion\, mint\, garlic\, lemon & olive oil \nFatayer al tofah فطاير تفاح\nThese crescent-shaped cookies are a specialty of Ghada\, one of our talented cooks.

It’s based on the leaves of the mallow or jute plant (the same one that produces jute fibre for rope & fabric)\, but known by many other names as well\, including West African sorrel\, bush okra and Jew’s mallow. This plant has been under cultivation in the Levant for millennia\, and was likely on the table of the ancient Egyptians.\n\n\n \n\n\nThe leaves are usually found dried and powdered\, but they are now in season\, so fresh\, green leaves can be used can be used to prepare Molokhia in a style popular in Damascus.

It is popular across Egypt\, Palestine\, Lebanon\, Jordan and Southern Syria\, but uncommon further North. This dish is so closely associated with Syrian food that it is also known as shâmiyât (شاميات ) or ‘Damascene’. This recipe\, by Soheer J. from Sweida\, is notable for its use of golden\, turmeric-and-spice-infused basmati rice and its garnish of butter-fried walnuts. The dish is built up in layers of bread\, rice\, yogurt & tahini sauce\, chicken\, nuts\, and garnishes. We will be preparing this dish in parts – crispy bread (dry)\, rice & chicken (to be warmed) and sauce (room temperature) separately\, so they can be combined at the last moment for the best combination of flavours\, temperatures and textures. \n[vegetarian] Fatteh Hummus فتتة حُمُّص\nFatteh with crispy pita\, seasoned rice\, yogurt-tahini sauce and walnuts\, with chickpeas and Cauliflower. \nTabbouleh تبولة‎‎\nOriginally from the mountains of Syria and Lebanon\, tabbouleh has become one of the most popular salads in the Middle East. A fragrant herb salad\, with parsley and mint\, tomato and onion\, with a scattering of bulgur\, and seasoned with olive oil\, lemon\, and salt. \nZalabeh زلابية\nDonuts are a universal language. Sticky sweet fried dough desserts can be found all over the world and this Syrian treat is right at the intersection of Greek loukoumades\, Mexican churros and Indian jalebi.

Tonight we’re making a round kibbeh popular in the coastal region of Lattakia. \n[Meat] Kibbeh Mishwiyeh كبة مشوية\nBulgur wheat\, finely ground halal beef and spices are combined and formed into a round\, domed shape\, stuffed with a spiced mixture of fried onions\, ground beef\, pomegranate molasses and toasted pine nuts. In Lattakia\, these are often grilled over an open fire — the name translates to ‘grilled kibbeh’ — but these can also be brushed with butter and then baked with a piece of charcoal to lend it a smoky flavour. \n[Vegetarian] Kibbeh Mishwiyeh\nThis vegetarian version of Kibbeh Mishwiyeh is made with a bulgur and potato dough\, and a filling of mozzarella cheese and mushrooms. \nBoth Kibbeh come with Salatet El Fijil (سلطة الفجل)\, or “Radish Salad”\, a popular side dish accompaniment\, though it more of a dip like baba ganoush or hummus than a salad. It is made of grated radishes mixed with tahini\, garlic\, yogurt and lemon juice. \nSalatah Horania سلطة حورانية\nNow that local Ontario tomatoes are in season\, it’s the perfect time for this delicious Syrian tomato salad. It gets it name from Horan\, a broad highland plateau in Southwestern Syria that includes the cities of Daraa and Sweida\, that has a good climate for garden vegetables.

Recipes were never exact; more like simple instructions that vary between neighbourhoods\, and even families. A series of handfuls and pinches that\, when executed properly\, lead to extraordinary meals. One of the dishes that exemplifies this culinary ingenuity is called maldoum (ملضوم)\, an incredibly delicious layered meat and eggplant dish. The classic way to prepare this dish is over a grill\, where you alternate meat patties and eggplant slices on a skewer. When the dish is prepared over the grill\, it is called\, kabob banjan (كباب باذنجان). But if you don’t have access to a grill\, you can prepare kabob banjan in the oven\, and call it maldoum.” \nMaldoum can be found in kitchens from Turkey to Lebanon; this is a more rustic\, summary version of of the dish\, that take advantage of the lovely local eggplants\, peppers\, zucchini and tomatoes that are in season. All the sliced vegetables are traditionally arranged in attractive layered patterns in a large shallow round pan before baking. \n[vegetarian] Maldoum ملضوم\nThe same dish\, but with more veggies\, no meat\, and a generous splash of olive oil. \nBoth come with a side of bulgur bel sharia\, bulgur wheat cooked with fried vermicelli \nSalatah Naameh سلطة ناعمة \nThis “fine salad” can be found throughout the middle east\, with tomatoes\, cucumber\, and white onion are finely diced and seasoned with olive oil\, mint and lemon juice. \nRoz bel Haleeb رز بحليب \nWherever you find rice\, you’ll probably find a version of rice pudding.

During Ramadan\, fasting begins immediately after the pre-dawn meal of Suhur and continues during the daylight hours\, ending with the evening meal of Ifthar (‘break fast’) at sunset. The spiritual rewards of fasting are also believed to be enhanced during Ramadan\, so this time often includes more prayers\, and an increase of good deeds and charity. \nBut beyond its religious and spiritual significance\, the Ifthar meal is a joyous celebration of family\, friends and — of course — fabulous food! Newcomer Kitchen invites you to join us for a traditional Syrian Ifthar dinner at The Depannuer\, prepared with love by some of our most talented cooks. This intimate evening will also include a performance of traditional Syrian music by Esmaeel Aboufakher and Rahaf Alaakbani. \nWe invite guests to join us at 8pm\, with a short musical programme starting at 8:30. Please keep in mind that no food or drink will be served until sunset (8:57pm)\, at which time dinner will be served. There will be some more music after dinner\, before dessert is served.\n—– \nWater & Dates\nThis is the traditional way to break the fast\, in emulation of the Prophet Muhammad \nShorabit Adas شوربة عدس\nThis yellow lentil soup flavoured with cumin\, onion\, Aleppo pepper\, black pepper and garnished with fresh coriander\, is probably the most popular soup in Syria. It is an essential and traditional dish during Ramadan\, when it is served hot with a slice of lemon. \nKibbeh Maklieh bil Lahmeh كبة مقلية باللحمة\nBulgur wheat\, finely ground halal beef and spices are combined and formed into small football-shaped dumplings to be stuffed with a spiced mixture of ground beef and toasted pine nuts. They are then fried to give them a crispy\, dark auburn exterior. \nFreekeh with Lamb\, Chicken and Nuts فريكة\nFreekeh is made from green durum wheat that processed in a special way to create a unique flavor. The wheat is harvested while the grains are yellow and the seeds still are soft; it then is piled and sun-dried. The piles are carefully set on fire so only the straw and chaff burn\, not the seeds. In these controlled conditions\, the high moisture content of the seeds prevents them from burning\, but imparts them with a unique smoky flavour. Next\, the roasted wheat is threshed and sun-dried before being cracked into smaller pieces so they resemble a green bulgur. This Syrian freekeh recipe is seasoned with onion\, butter\, black pepper\, cinnamon\, and cumin\, topped with tender braised lamb and chicken legs\, and garnished with fried nuts. \nMaldoum ملضوم\nMany versions of Maldoum can be found in Levantine kitchens from Turkey to Lebanon; this is a more rustic\, summery and vegetarian version of the dish. All the sliced vegetables are traditionally arranged in attractive layered patterns in a large shallow round pan before being baked. \nKhyar Belaban خيار بلبن\nYogurt and cucumbers with a touch of garlic is popular combination throughout the Mediterranean\, but the addition of mint makes for an especially delightful\, cool and refreshing summer salad. \nTabbouleh تبولة‎‎\nOriginally from the mountains of Syria and Lebanon\, tabbouleh has become one of the most popular salads in the Middle East. A fragrant herb salad of parsley and mint\, tomato and onion\, with a scattering of bulgur\, and seasoned with olive oil\, lemon\, and salt. \nQatayef قطايف\nQatayef (or Katayef) is kind of sweet dumpling filled with cream or nuts commonly served during the month of Ramadan\, traditionally prepared by street vendors as well as households throughout the Levant and Egypt. A yeasted batter is used to make small round pancakes which are filled with ricotta cheese or a mixture of nuts and/or dried fruit before being drizzled with a fragrant sugar syrup. \nNammoura نموره\nOne of the most well-known traditional Syrian desserts; a simple cake of semolina\, butter\, sugar and yogurt drizzled with simple syrup scented with lemon. This version features a generous sprinkling of pistachios. \nCoffee or Tea \n—– \n$90 +HST\nProceeds go to the cooks\, musicians\, and to support Newcomer Kitchen \n—–\nNewcomer Kitchen is a new project that invites groups of Syrian newcomer women to use our kitchen to cook traditional Syrian dishes in a fun\, social setting.
