About Fatayer bil jibneh

Fatayer bil Jibneh is a savory pastry originating from Middle Eastern cuisine, particularly popular in countries like Lebanon and Syria. It features a soft, doughy exterior folded into triangular shapes and is traditionally stuffed with a creamy cheese filling, often a mixture of feta, Akkawi, or other Middle Eastern cheeses. Sometimes, herbs such as parsley or mint are added for an extra burst of flavor. Fatayer bil Jibneh is admired for its balance of textures, with a mildly tangy, rich filling encased in tender, golden-brown dough. While the dish provides a good source of calcium and protein from the cheese, its high-fat and carbohydrate content make it a calorie-dense treat. Enjoyed in moderation, Fatayer bil Jibneh can be a delightful addition to a balanced diet, often served as an appetizer, snack, or alongside a fresh salad to complement its richness.
