Kathleen from Gonna Want Seconds said in this post that “Orange Blossom Water” is one of her favorite blogs. Kathleen, thank you so much for the kind words about the blog, you are such a sweetheart!

I love this bread, the dough is soft, tender and sweet, I filled the bread with strawberry jam (the original recipe used raspberry jam), I can’t wait to try different fillings, one of them will be date paste.

My mom learned this recipe from a book, unfortunately the book didn’t mention the origin of this dish. Jilantin Al-Lahem is prepared from ground meat, onion, chopped parsley, bread crumbs, nutmeg, and egg, mixed together then formed into a log then wrapped and cooked in water. I served it with sautéed potatoes, and I’ll share the recipe of the potatoes in this post.
