Mediterranean Cooking is now Social

Hey Dede, love your website.  Just like you I've been cooking since I was a little girl and come a Lebanese background.  I also grew up not far from Detroit, but on the Canadian side of the border.  Any way unfortunately my mother passed away when I was in my early 20's and wish I had written her recipes down.  It's only once in awhile that I find a recipe that  is as authentic to the way she used to prepare the meals.  You have hit many of them on the head.  What I am looking for is a (pardon my spelling) Mahklouto recipe.  It was a lentel soup that she always made on Good Friday since we weren't allowed to eat meat. It contained, lentel,barley, corn, chickpeas and these little dumplings made from a mixture using bulgur.  I know lemon juice was always added just before serving.  I crave this dish so many times and can't find it anywhere.  Do you have a recipe for it?  It would be greatly appriciated. 

 

Keep up the amazing site!

HI Patty,

I'm so glad you like my recipes and find them to be familiar :)
Honestly, I know a couple of lentil soup recipes, but I don't know this one, BUT I will ask my mom about it, I'm sure she knows it and I'll get back to you soon :)

Happy COOKING

Hey Dede: I finally got that recipe from an Aunt of mine and made it for Good Friday....It was amazing, just like I remember it as a girl. So you don't need to ask your mom, but I'm willing to share it if you need the recipe.

thanks again
Patty
