About Luqaimat
Luqaimat, a beloved dessert from Middle Eastern cuisine, particularly popular in Gulf countries, is a sweet and crispy treat often enjoyed during festive gatherings like Ramadan. These golden dumplings are made from a simple batter consisting of flour, yeast, sugar, and cardamom, resulting in a fluffy and airy interior. They are traditionally deep-fried in oil until crisp and then drenched in sticky date syrup or honey, enhancing their rich sweetness. While Luqaimat is a source of quick energy due to its high carbohydrate and fat content, its indulgent nature means it is best consumed in moderation. The syrup provides some micronutrients depending on the variety used, but the dish can be calorie-dense and high in sugar. For a lighter version, experimenting with alternative cooking methods and less syrup can help balance its nutritional profile without losing its signature appeal.
