🕥 Time: 10:30 AM – 1:00 PM
📍 Clove Kitchen – an intimate and cozy space for sharing food and stories.

Step into the heart of Syrian cuisine with Racha’s Syrian Kitchen and learn how to make one of Damascus’s most beloved vegetarian dishes —

Harra’a Be Esba’o.

🌿 Known as “Burn Your Finger,” this hearty, nourishing Levantine dish is packed with lentils, garlic, coriander, tamarind, fried bread, and pomegranate molasses. It’s a completely vegetarian meal that’s perfect for cooler weather, yet so vibrant and refreshing it can be enjoyed cold during summer.

What You’ll Experience:

From flour to feast, you’ll be guided through each step of creating Harra’a Be Esba’o:

🥣 Dough Making – Learn how to prepare and knead a smooth, elastic dough, perfect for cutting into fettuccine-like strips and crisped squares for garnish.
🍲 Building the Stew – Simmer lentils with garlic, tamarind, and caramelised onions, then gently cook the dough strips in the stew. Finish with an aromatic garlic-coriander oil and top with crispy fried dough and sweet, caramelized onions for layers of texture and bold Syrian flavor.
