Potato Kibbeh is a Syrian dish that has definitely been missing from this blog. I love trying dishes from other countries and the kibbeh had been in my head as an idea for a while. I remember it more from Turkey, in the form of small particles that were served as an appetizer. Today’s kibbeh is made a little differently, in a casserole dish with onions and walnuts. I find it incredibly delicious and it adds a nice variety to the kitchen.
Vegan potato kibbeh
The preparation is simple, but takes some time. This is due to the potatoes , which are first boiled and then mashed. In the meantime, prepare the bulgur, with hot water and a little vegetable broth. After 10 minutes of infusion, this is already ready and ready for further processing.
The bulgur goes directly into the bowl with the mashed potatoes, along with the onion, parsley, cinnamon, salt, cumin (optional) and pepper. All this is processed with the hands into a compact mass.
I use a casserole dish with a length of 26cm and a volume of 2.4 liters, which is the perfect size. On the bottom are chopped walnuts and onion rings, which are finely caramelized during baking. The potato-bulgur measures is placed directly over the onion and walnuts and pressed flat. As a final step, I draw a diamond pattern on the surface and it’s off to the oven.
Vegan potato dishes from the oven
The kibbeh is especially good as a side dish or with various other appetizers. I’m thinking a big appetizer plate with various antipasti, fresh naan and dips. If you are looking for other vegan dishes with potatoes today, I have the following suggestions for you:
- Potato salad with wild garlic pesto
- Roasted cauliflower with mashed potatoes
- Mashed potatoes
- Indian Potato Stir Fry
- Potato gratin
- Zucchini potato pancakes
- Baked potatoes
- Simple potato salad
- Crispy fries
How healthy are actually potatoes?
Potatoes are very healthy and unjustly have a bad reputation:
- low in calories, consist of up to 80% water
- formresistant starch (indigestible) when cooled, a valuable “food” for the healthy intestinal bacteria
- contain vegetable protein, B vitamins, vitamin C and potassium
- rich in flavonoids and anthocyanins (valuable secondary plant compounds)
Which is better, organic or conventionally grown potatoes? Here, as almost always, organic wins! why? Organic farmers do not use synthetic mineral fertilizers. The potatoes thus contain on average 30 percent less nitrate and many times less pesticide residues. I always buy organic potatoes directly from the farmer at the farm. This saves money and unnecessary transportation.
The potato kibbeh is:
- Syriac
- filling
- Oriental
- Spicy
- Perfect appetizer or side dish
