Fasouliyeh Bi-Zeit Az-Zeitoun
November 7th, 2009
In Syria, we cook green beans in two ways:
1. Fasouliyeh Bez-Zeit: green beans cooked with olive oil, crushed garlic and ground coriander seeds, (Some people make Fasoulia Bez-Zeit in different way, they add to it tomato chunks and onion).
2. Fasouliyeh Bel-Bandourah: green beans cooked with meat, onion and tomato sauce.
Fasouliyeh is the Arabic word for green beans, Zeit is the Arabic word for oil.

Jam Rolls

These rolls are perfect for breakfast with a cup of tea. The filling is Nutella in the original recipe, but I used Apricot jam and Strawberry jam. Next time, I’ll use the same dough and make Cheese rolls and Za’tar rolls.
