Comments on: The Ultimate Kibbe, Syrian Style http://taiyyaba.com/2008/05/28/the-ultimate-kibbe-syrian-style/ The musings of Taiyyaba Wed, 25 Aug 2010 03:57:11 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: admin http://taiyyaba.com/2008/05/28/the-ultimate-kibbe-syrian-style/comment-page-1/#comment-1482 admin Mon, 08 Feb 2010 19:52:00 +0000 http://blog.taiyyaba.com/?p=113#comment-1482 Marie - my mother in law makes a phenomenal tis'iyyah. I'll put a real recipe up eventually, but here is what I understand so far. Rinse a can of chickpeas and puree the beans with a can-full of water. Cook this until it is hot - let it simmer for a while to all come together and soften. Season with cumin, salt, and black pepper. Into this mixture, add stale pita bread that has been torn into chunks. The white sauce is a mixture of tahini paste and yogurt - mix this up to taste. Pour the chickpea-bread mixture into a bowl (you may want to add half a can of whole chickpeas for texture). Pour the tahini-yogurt sauce on top (or mix in half of it, then swirl half on top). Top with diced tomatoes, parsley, onions, cucumbers - whatever you like. On the very top, lightly sprinkle some cumin and maybe even some sumac. Marie – my mother in law makes a phenomenal tis’iyyah.

I love kibbe and so do my kids. I'm looking for a recipe my husband used to eat around Damascus when he was a kid called tis-ee-ah (forgive my bad arabic) Basically it was chickpeas in a white sauce made by blending hot water and oil and it emulsified somehow. Do you or anyone else in cyberland know how to make it? Thanks. Please post it if you can. I absolutely love good arabic food. I love kibbe and so do my kids.

Step-by-step with photos :) Keep up the amazing documentation! Write a cookbook!
