Preparation

• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.

Step 1: Make the minced meat mixture

• Wash the uncooked bulgur in a sieve with cold water.

• Chop the onion and then grind it finely in a food processor.

• Add the bulgur, minced meat, onion, black pepper, cinnamon and salt to taste and mix together.

• Then add a little cold water and form the mixture into a dough ball.

Step 2: Prepare the filling

• Melt the butter over low heat

• Chop the onion and fry it in the pan with the butter.

• Once the onion is translucent, add the pine nuts. Stir regularly until the pine nuts are brown.

• Add the minced meat and turn up the heat.

• Add the black pepper and cinnamon while stirring.

• Once the minced meat is cooked, remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool thoroughly.

Step 3. Make the kibbeh

• Take a small amount of dough and roll it into a ball with a diameter of 4cm.

• Make a hole in the ball with your fingers and fill it with about 1 tablespoon of the filling.

• Knead the ball closed and shape it into an oval kibbeh. Repeat these steps until the ingredients are used up.

• Then bake it in the oven at 180 degrees for about 60 minutes until the kibbeh is brown.
