About Kibee

Kibee, also spelled kibbeh, is a traditional dish rooted in Middle Eastern cuisine, particularly popular in countries like Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq. It typically consists of minced meat (often lamb or beef), bulgur wheat, onions, and a blend of warm spices such as allspice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Kibee can be baked, fried, or served raw, depending on regional preferences. Rich in protein and fiber due to its meat and bulgur content, it provides essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins. However, some variations may be higher in fat and calories, particularly when fried, so portion control is key. Balancing kibee with vegetables or lighter side dishes can make it part of a wholesome, satisfying meal.
