I like my far bretons to have a darker colour so I set the temperature to 200℃. If you prefer a lighter-colored bake, set it to 180℃. Recipe by Mishatomo

Sheik's traditional Syrian Meat Pies (Sfeeha) Sheik's traditional Syrian Meat Pies (Sfeeha)
CROHN'S,.COLITIS, IBD, DIABETIC and DYSPHAGIA (only if dough is NOT overcooked) friendly.5/19/19by The Sheikfrom "Sheik's The Crucible: An Alloy of World Cuisine"FACEBOOK:@SheiksTheCrucible (please LIKE me)COOKPAD:TheSheik (please follow me)Of all the recipes of my Mom, Marie David, this by far was one of her most popular which was handed down to her by my grandmother, Esma Matook.It was the hardest recipe to get from Mom because of her on going battle with Dementia. It literally took me 6 years of interrogation and experimentation before I found the right combination of ingredients and amounts to recreate this family staple.This recipe uses Pillsbury Grands for the dough which is pre-mixed and easy to work with. But, it is no substitute for my Mom's signature homemade dough she use (listed elsewhere in this cookbook).Before she got sick, Mom was the lead cook for the annual church Christmas bazaar for many years, and this delicious treat was the star often netting the church over $5,000 in advance sales.Often referred to as Middle Eastern pizza by Westerners, these little treats are great as an appetizer, meal, snack or dessert. Its addictive savory, sweet taste is an explosion of flavor with every bite!EDITOR'S NOTE:Try this yummy meat mixture on your favorite pizza dough. Much easier to make since you're only spreading out one 16 in dough shell.Sheik"It's Munchie Time!"Copyright 2019 Curtis A. David / Sheik's The Crucible

Light Eggplant Fatteh Light Eggplant Fatteh
This Eggplant Fatteh is a healthier and lighter version of the classic middle eastern Fatteh. Eggplant Fatteh is basically a layered eggplant and yoghurt salad. Layers of crispy pita bread, eggplant and tomato sauce, ground beef, and yoghurt sauce, topped with pine nuts, parsley, and pomegranate seeds.For a healthier Fatteh , Instead of deep frying the eggplant cubes and the pita bread squares, I cooked the eggplants with the tomato sauce on the stove and toasted the bread in the oven.
