Marhaba! Have you tried one of the tastiest appetizers of the all-time? Potatoes in cilantro and garlic are practically served at every restaurant in Lebanon and other states in the Levant. My wife and I were very happy that most Arabic restaurants in the United States offer this one-of-a-kind appetizer. Today, I am sharing the recipe that my wife and I have from our mothers in Lebanon. As always, I have added it in Arabic and then translated to English. This is very easy to prepare and you find the ingredients anywhere. Try to prepare it soon and share your results under this post or via Facebook and/or Twitter. I look forward to hearing about your culinary experiences.
