About Kebbe

Kebbe, also spelled kibbeh, is a dish traditionally found in Middle Eastern and Levantine cuisine. It typically consists of a mixture of bulgur wheat, ground meat (often lamb or beef), onions, and a blend of spices such as cinnamon, allspice, and cumin. The mixture is often shaped into torpedoes, fried, baked, or served raw, depending on regional variations. Kebbe is a rich source of protein and fiber, thanks to its meat and bulgur wheat base. Bulgur adds whole grain benefits, including improved digestion and sustained energy. However, fried versions can be high in fat and calories, so baking or raw preparations may be a healthier option. Kebbe is versatile and can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or side, making it a flavorful and nutritious staple of Middle Eastern culinary traditions. Pair it with fresh vegetables or yogurt sauce for a balanced meal.
