Kebbeh is a popular dish with origins in Middle Eastern cuisine, particularly in countries like Lebanon and Syria. Traditionally made with a combination of bulgur wheat, minced onions, and finely ground meat—such as lamb or beef—kebbeh is often flavored with warm spices like cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg. It can be prepared in various forms, including baked, fried, or served raw (kebbeh nayeh). Nutritionally, kebbeh provides a good balance of protein from the meat and dietary fiber from the bulgur wheat. The spices add antioxidant properties, while the inclusion of healthy fats depends on the cooking method used. Baked versions are generally considered healthier due to reduced oil content, compared to deep-fried styles which may add excess calories and saturated fats. Moderation is key, as this flavorful dish can be both nutritious and indulgent depending on the ingredients and preparation.
