Adapted from the book: The Foods of Israel Today. http://www.grouprecipes.com/74045/a-recipe-for-homemade-israeli-hummus.html “Qarnabeet Maklee” These fritters are delicate bites that are quite tasty and very well suited for serving to a group. They will disappear very rapidly. I included two batters that are most commonly used in our family. The Sumac batter is a little more unusual and used in more rural areas where as the Cinnamon-Allspice batter is more traditional. For a slightly more calorie friendly variation, you can also fry or oven roast the cauliflower with no breading at all. It iw done when it achieves a medium to medium dark brown color all over . Hope you enjoy. http://www.grouprecipes.com/65843/cauliflower-fritters-lebanese-style.html For more about Zaatar, see my Zaatar Appetizer post. Zaatar Bread is basic pita bread dough that has been docked so that it doesn’t split into a pocket and topped with Olive Oil and the Middle Eastern Spice mixture Zaatar. It is highly aromatic while baking and a real delight to eat still warm from the oven. We always called this Sumac bread because, more often than not, my grandmother would use ground Sumac instead of or along with Zaatar. My sister is the baker of the family, this is the basic the recipe she uses. I am not much of a baker but I am always right there as the oven door opens just to see if she has her spicing right… ;-)~~ Zaatar bread can be topped with a number of optional ingredients such as chopped fresh Tomato, Roasted Peppers, Parsley, Mint, Crumbled Feta, Chopped Scallions etc. http://www.grouprecipes.com/53391/zaatar-bread.html This is a go to for me when I need my lamb fix and chops aren't in the budget...Great served with rice pilaf or even couscous http://www.grouprecipes.com/49997/spicy-kofta-shish-kebab.html Lebanese Zaatar is a spice combination of Thyme, Sumac and Toasted Sesame Seeds. In Syria Hyssop (Syrian Oregano) Replaces the Thyme. It is a staple in a Lebanese household. In it's simplest form. Dip pita in oilive oil then in Zaatar and eat. It makes a great impromtu appetizer if someone stops by. Zaatar mixed with Olive Oil and baked on flatbread (I will post recipe soon) is well known in Mediterranean cuisine. I will post a recipe for Zaatar but it is readily available on the internet and local specialty stores. http://www.grouprecipes.com/43448/zaatar-appetizer.html The blending of sumac, oil, and fat from the chicken soaking into the flatbread will make you wonder how anything so simple can result in such complex flavors and aroma. The combination of soaked bread underneath and crispy bread on top makes quite an unusual and interesting form of stuffing. http://www.grouprecipes.com/42828/chicken-with-sumac.html
