Grape Leaves Aleppo
I am Syrian also (Shammy), my grandmother made this all the time and now I do. Our recipe is extremely similar, however we also use bones in the bottom of the pot for added flavor. Also, they are also delicious with beef if you do not like lamb. This is a staple in my home and we have even made them to pass around at my neices wedding. The restaurant felt honored to have us share this meal with them as well. Thanks for the tip about adding olives, will have to try that next time! :) Yum!

Lentils and Rice with Fried Onions (Mujadarrah)
My Syrian grandmother made this all the time. We pronounced it (jeddarah. She usually used salt and pepper with either all spice or cumin, depending on what she had on hand. I make this too and like to use long grain basmati rice or parboiled if in a hurry. Also, I like to brown vermicelli in olive oil in a skillet first to add to the rice. Serve with plain yogurt (leban)...yum!!! :)

Skillet Rolls
This recipe was a huge hit in my house on Thanksgiving day! I have only baked with yeast a few times so I was nervous about how well I would do with these. I followed the recipe exactly and it was extremely easy! The flavor was wonderful and my family told me this recipe is now expected on all holidays! Thanks so much for sharing!
