I have recently changed my diet to Mediterranean, specifically Lebanese style food, due to gallbladder issues.
My wife and I have discovered a dish called Ghallaba, chicken and veggies included.
I want to find a cookbook of Lebanese recipes that includes ghallaba, galaba, gallaya, whatever the spelling variation.
Do any if your cookbooks include this delightful recipe., or can you advise us on a cookbook that does.
Thank you.
Hi Todd, thanks so much for asking about ghallaba. I have not had or developed a recipe for this–yet!! I’m going to try it and get after it, the dish sounds delicious and traditional.
