Indulge in the authentic taste of Syrian cuisine with MyJam - the UK's leading online cultural grocery store. From classic dishes like Makdous and Yebrak to the beloved kibbeh and beyond, our extensive selection of traditional foods has everything you need to experience the rich and diverse flavours of Syrian cuisine.
Syrian cuisine is a true reflection of the country's unique history and culture, drawing influences from the Levant, Mediterranean and Arab world. It is characterised by its delectable taste, delicate blend of spices, and emphasis on using only the freshest ingredients available.
Among the most loved Syrian dishes is the iconic makdous - pickled baby eggplants stuffed with a flavorful blend of herbs and spices and soaked in olive oil and it is usually an essential part of the Syrian breakfast. Equally enticing is yebrak, a dish of grape leaves stuffed with rice and minced meat that epitomises the richness of Syrian cuisine. Kibbeh is another favourite, made with cracked wheat and minced meat, shaped into balls or patties, and then fried or baked to perfection.
For a satisfying and warming stew, shish barak is a must-try, featuring small dumplings filled with meat and cooked in yoghurt. Additionally, Sfiha, a flatbread topped with a flavorful mixture of ground meat, tomatoes, onions, and spices is a popular choice often served with tahini sauce or yoghurt. For dessert, indulge in Halawet el-jibn, a soft and sticky delicacy made from sweet cheese mixed with semolina and sugar, rolled into thin, cylindrical shapes and filled with a sweet cream made from milk and sugar, topped with syrup and ground pistachios.
