M7ashee
October 6, 2007 | 5:15 pm
M7ashee, stuffed vegetables, is a (very delicious) traditional Palestinian/Levantine dish. The vegetables are usually carved and then stuffed with rice, some meat, and a dash of spices. The dish is cooked with a light tomato sauce and served hot.
The interesting thing is that people have used all sorts of vegetables in this dish. Besides the traditional Zucchinis and Egg Plants, some people stuff the following vegetables:
- Green Peppers
- Small Pumpkins (يقطين)
- Potatoes
- Cucumbers
- Tomatoes (this is probably the hardest one)
- Sweet Carrots (The purple ones)
- فقوس (i don’t know what that is in English, but it looks like cucumbers)
Do you know of other vegetables that are also used in m7ashee ?

On May 12, 2008 | 2:15 amThanks, i wish i could claim that i cooked this, but my mom cooked these when i was back in Ramallah … i just eat them
.
However, I think any Palestinian/Lebanese/Syrian (Levantine) cook book will have this recipe in it.

بالمناسبة، هناك طبخة شبيهة بالكوسا باللبن وإسمها “مخشي كوسا” .. وفيها يحشى الكوسا باللحمة المفرومة والصنوبر ثم يقلى ثم يطبخ باللبن !! فعلاً إنها أكلة لذيذة
