In partnership with AusRelief's "Feed your soul" campaign, I am sharing my recipe for Kebbi meatball soup and Kebbi Naye in AusReliefs Ramadan recipes video series (look out on socials)!
I will be fundraising for food packs in Lebanon as it is my father's homeland which I hope to go back to visit someday! It is my heritage and it means a lot to me. Help me reach as many people as possible by donating this Ramadan!

- Recipe for Kebbi nayi (feeds 2-3 adults )
You’ll need:
250 g Kebbi mince
1/4 cup fine burgul (washed and rested)
1/2 red capsicum
1 tbs @chilli.bang.sauces
1 tbs kamounet Kebbi (you can find at most arab grocers ).
Salt n pepper to taste
1 small brown onion
1 cup fresh basil leaves
1. Make sure you wash the burgul and immediately squeeze out excess water and let it rest an hour before mixing it in with meat .
The resting process will make the burgul double in size .
2. I prefer to use a manual hand chopper for the basil , onion and capsicum . Food processor makes it too mushy I like some texture in the Kebbi .
3. Add all ingredients together in a large bowl once the burgul has been rested and use tiny drops of water to aid with mixing as needed .
4. Dress with good quality EV olive oil once you want to eat it .
