King of street foods in Lebanon, shawarma is typically topped with pickled onions, cucumbers, tahini, parsley and tomatoes.

Every country has its own version of meatballs, and in Lebanon they call them kafta. The traditional Lebanese kafta is a mix of ground lamb and beef with spices and herbs, but you can make them with just ground beef or ground lamb. Serve them with yogurt sauce with a hint of sumac and it will transport you to the streets of Lebanon.
Kousa Mahshi
Stuffed zucchini, or Kousa Mahshi in Arabic, is a popular Lebanese dish during the summer months, when zucchini is at its prime. The traditional way to make kousa mahshi is to hollow out a whole zucchini and stuff it with a spiced meat filling.
