Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon clarified butter (also known as ghee)
- 1 onion minced - use frozen diced onions to save time, medium
- 20 ounces ground sirloin (lamb or bison work well too)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour Lebanese Spice Blend
- ¼ cup pine nuts (toasted)
- parsley garnish, fresh, minced
Instructions
Toasting the Pine Nuts:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. On a small cookie sheet place raw pine nuts and cook for 5-7 minutes or until they are at a light brown in color. Keep a careful eye on them as they can burn quickly.
Lebanese Hushwee
- In a deep pan, melt butter over medium high heat then add the minced onion. Sautee until translucent, 4-5 minutes.
- Add ground sirloin and spices. Cook 8-10 minutes or until meat is browned, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon to break up meat. Check for seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in toasted pine nuts and set aside.
Notes
- To toast pine nuts simply spread in an even layer on a baking pan and bake at 350 degrees for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown.
- If you don’t wish to make your own clarified butter (also known as “ghee”), you can find it online or in most health stores.
- For lasting freshness, store pine nuts in the freezer to keep them fresher, longer.
