Need recipe help quick! - kibbeh?

Yes, that’s what it is saying. The cooked stuffing in the middle must be a different texture when both are cooked.

Thanks, @janbb. That’s what I did, but it seemed wrong.

I’ll let you know how it comes out.

. . .inquiring minds !

My son and I worked together on it. He made the stuffing. We waffled a little about whether the cinnamon and nutmeg went just in the stuffing or in the whole mix. In the end we put it in the whole mix, lavishly, not just 1/8 tsp. (My husband did in fact write in 2 tsp.).

It came out a little dry, but tasted fine. I would do it again like that, althought maybe shortening the oven time by a few minutes.

I annotated the recipe for next time.

Again, thanks, @janbb. Your confidence emboldened me.
