Lebanese Food includes an abundance of starches, fruits, vegetables,
fresh fish and seafood; animal fats are consumed sparingly. Poultry is
eaten more often than red meat. When red meat is eaten it is usually
lamb on the coast, and goat meat in the mountain regions. It also
includes copious amounts of garlic and olive oil, often seasoned by
lemon juice.olive oil, herbs, garlic and lemon are typical flavours
found in the Lebanese diet.
Safeha
also known as 'Arab' or 'Chaldean' Pizza, is a pizza-like dish originating from the Levant (Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine and Iraq), and introduced in Brazil, Mexico and Argentina by Levantine immigrants.In contrast to the modern use of lamb or beef, traditional sfiha are open-faced meat pies made with ground mutton. Historically, sfiha were much like dolma- simply ground lamb, lightly spiced, wrapped in brined grape leaves. In Brazil, sfihas are folded into a triangular pastry, although the open-faced version is very common too.
