← Replies in Gluten Free Quinoa Kibbeh Stuffed with Green Vegetables Recipe

Absolutely inedible. Quinoa mixture was flavorless, pasty, and hard to form into hollow balls. Filling was also pretty flavorless but recipe ingredients seemed off. 400 g chickpeas - dry or cooked? 40 g thyme? We have English thyme available in our markets, not the type you get in the Middle East so that might have made a substantial difference. However, I could have gotten over the lack of flavor had they not been utterly pasty and gross. Threw away the whole batch which is saying something because we never throw away food.

I’m sorry you had to throw it, you must be the first time preparing kibbeh, since the dough and filling flavor can be adjusted through the spices tasting before cooking, as well as the difficulty of shaping the ball can be solved by adjusting the water and flour accordingly. Wish you a good day 😊
