Arabic Samboosak

      Delicious! I made these with lamb and just had to add minced garlic to the onion; loved the blend of oniony/garlicky flavours with the cumin. I also added some pine nuts (love textural variation) and about a teaspoon of lemon juice. For me, after a full-on week at work, making the pastry was a very calming weekend experience and we were SO pleased with the final Arabic Samboosak. :) We enjoyed them immensely with a generous dollop of creamy Greek yoghurt but next time I make these I want to make sure that I have some tzatziki - either bought or that I've made - on hand as that would be even better. Great recipe, mersaydees! Thank you for sharing it. Made for PRMR.

      Arabic Samboosak, This is based on a recipe from the link nclrc org/guides/HED/lessons/20 html, which I made after attempting recipe #173583 for the Aussie Recipe Swap #12 At the time, the recipe I had attempted was based on a very rough Arabic translation, so chef #239758 kindly turned me onto this one I tried this Samboosak, and would recommend serving them with a sauce such as recipe #36126 — if anyone knows of a more appropriate Arabic sauce, please let me know! 🙂 I think they’re quite good without a sauce, too!, Delicious!
