Default Syrian recipes

Here's what I'm craving at the moment:

Zahara (cauliflower)

1 head of cauliflower cut into medium sized chunks
2-3 cloves of garlic crushed with some salt
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 cup of fresh chopped cilantro

Fry the cauliflower in a deep fat fryer until a light golden brown color. Mix the lemon juice with the garlic and salt. Pour over the cauliflower and sprinkle with cilantro. Eat with warm pita bread. Serves 4.

Fasoolya bi zeit (green beans in oil)
1 pound of fresh or frozen green beans
1 medium onion finely chopped
2 medium sized tomatoes
2 cloves of crushed garlic with some salt
1/2 cup of cilantro
olive oil, salt, pepper

Saute onions in vegetable or corn oil until soft. Add green beans, salt and pepper to taste and cook until tender but still a light green color. Add tomatoes and cook the whole thing a minute or two. Just before serving add the garlic and allow it to cook with the green beans, onions, and tomatoes just a minute. Before serving, add the cilantro and more olive oil, preferably when it is on the table. Eat with warm pita bread. Serves 4.

Fasoolya (green beans)
1 medium onion chopped fine
1 1/2 cups of ground meat or ground lamb
1 lb. fresh or frozen green beans
1-8 oz. can of tomato sauce
water, salt, pepper/all spice

Serve over rice.

Saute onions in vegetable oil or corn oil until golden brown. Add ground beef and season well with all spice, salt, and pepper. The meat should be well seasoned and flavorful but not spicy. I'm not sure how much spice I add, it's to taste. Add water, just enough to cover and allow the meat and onions to cook together for 10-15 minutes. Add green beans and saute them for 2-3 minutes. Add tomato sauce, salt, pepper, and water to cover everything. Bring to a boil and after boiling, allow to cook at a low simmer for maybe 10 minutes. While this is cooking, make rice. Serve over rice. Serves 4 people.

Isaiah 61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that they might be glorified.
