👨🍳 Zubereitung
- 1
Rinse bulgur and soak in cold water for 30 minutes. Squeeze out excess water thoroughly.
💡 Profitipps: Ensure bulgur is very dry to prevent kibbeh from breaking. - 2
In a bowl, combine soaked bulgur, 1/2 lb ground meat, 1/2 chopped onion, allspice, cinnamon, 1 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper. Knead until a smooth, cohesive dough forms. This may take 10-15 minutes by hand or a few minutes in a food processor.
💡 Profitipps: The mixture should be pliable and not sticky. - 3
For the filling, sauté the remaining 1/2 lb ground meat and 1/2 chopped onion in a pan until browned. Drain excess fat. Stir in pine nuts, remaining 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper. Let cool.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 4
Divide the bulgur mixture into small balls. Flatten each ball in your palm, create a thin shell, and fill with the meat mixture. Seal carefully to form oval-shaped kibbeh.
💡 Profitipps: Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking. - 5
Heat about 2-3 inches of oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C). Fry the kibbeh in batches until golden brown and cooked through.
⏱️ 5-7 minutes per batch💡 Profitipps: Do not overcrowd the pot. - 6
While kibbeh fries, prepare the yogurt sauce. In a saucepan, whisk together yogurt, minced garlic, cornstarch/flour, and 1/2 tsp salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and just begins to simmer. Do not boil vigorously.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 7
Gently add the fried kibbeh to the warm yogurt sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 8
Serve hot, garnished with fresh mint. This dish can also be served with rice on the side.
💡 Profitipps: A sprinkle of sumac can add an extra layer of flavor.
