I LOVE this food.
Last night, one of the very best television 'tours' of great local cuisine from around the world took us to some great Lebanese-Australian cooks' cooking up these dishes, in their homes and workplaces.
Here's the index link:

There is a list of ingredients on that link.
Here is the list of recipes. Plus a video
link for recipe video clips.
This is making me hungry!
Here's the list of dishes cooked and tried:
- Baba Ghanouj (Eggplant Dip)
- Baked Salmon 'Tarator' Style
- Hoummus
- Kafta
- Kousa Mahshi (Stuffed Zucchini)
- Tabbouleh
This doesn't even cover the
sweets, which I learned are eaten
between courses.
Please add your own experiences of finding great dishes, great feasts (aren't all Lebanese meals feasts?) and what you've cooked or will try sometime. ^
(Personally, I was amazed at the amount of yoghurt Lebanese eat, What a staple.
We have a lot of great veges brought here by Lebanese migrants and they are popular here.
I'll try to do Baba Ghanouj dip, Hoummus dip and the stuffed zucchini)
