Kubbah safarjalīyah

Kubbah safarjalīyah is an Aleppine dish that consists of stuffed meatballs cooked with a quince-based soup. The meatballs, known as kibbeh, are typically made with ground lamb or beef, bulgur, and onions. They are stuffed with a mixture of spiced ground lamb or beef, onions, and toasted pine nuts. The stuffed meatballs are usually first boiled, and then simmered in safarjaliyeh, which consists of quince, tomato juice, meat, a blend of mint and garlic, pomegranate molasses, and pomegranate juice. Sweet and sour, kubbah safarjalīyah is typically consumed warm, usually as an appetizer.
