Sambousek are small, crescent-shaped savory pastries filled with spiced meat, cheese, or spinach, then fried or baked until golden and crisp. The dough is made from wheat flour and shaped into thin rounds that encase the fillings. Popular throughout Lebanon and the wider Middle East, Sambousek is often served as part of a mezze platter or during Ramadan iftar meals. Fillings vary by region and preference—lamb with pine nuts and akawi or feta cheese are among the most common.
