About Lamb kibbeh

Lamb Kibbeh is a traditional Middle Eastern dish, popular in cuisines like Lebanese and Syrian. It consists of finely ground lamb blended with bulgur wheat, onions, and fragrant spices such as cinnamon, allspice, and cumin. Kibbeh is often prepared as baked, fried, or raw patties, making it a versatile dish. Rich in protein from the lamb, it also provides fiber from bulgur wheat, supporting digestion and overall health. Lamb is a good source of iron, essential for energy and oxygen transport, alongside B vitamins for brain health. However, Kibbeh may be high in saturated fat depending on the cut of lamb used and cooking method, especially if fried. Pairing it with fresh vegetables or a yogurt dip can enhance its nutritional balance while keeping the flavors authentic.
