Vegetarian Kibbeh

 

Ingredients:

 

* 1 pound bulgur or cracked wheat

* boilin water

* 6 carrots, minced (you can use as much as 12 if you wish)

* 2 large onions, minced

* 1 cup of parsley, minced

* 4 cloves of garlic, minced

* 1/4 cup of olive Oil

* 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds

* 1/4 cup of black Olive, sliced (Optional)

* 1 package of tofu, scrambled (Optional)

* salt and pepper to taste

 

Directions:

 

This recipe is modified, but originally Kibbeh was an ancient

Lebanese recipe made with lamb ground meat.

 

Put the cracked wheat in a large bowl and pour boiling water to

cover. The cracked wheat will grow instantly. Wait 5 or 10

minutes. With a cheese cloth, squeeze out the excess of water.

 

Combine all the ingredients, and mix well for five to 10

minutes. Put in a baking tray, cut it into even squares and

bake it in a pre-heated oven at 350 F for 30 minutes.

 

Serves: 10

 

Preparation time: 1 hour
