Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
(The Dough Shell:)
2 cup farina small grain
1 cup Bulgur #1 fine
2 tsp dried ground coriander
2 tsp salt or to taste
1 tsp paprika or Kayan
(The Stuffing:)
2 lb ground beef

1 bunch parsley diced fine
2 tbsp soft butter
1 tsp salt or to taste
1 tsp chili pepper (if you prefer)
1 tbs tomato paste

Directions:
Directions:
In a mixing bowl add the farina and the bulgur then wash and drain. Let the dough rest for 20 min. Now break the dough with your hand and add the salt, coriander and some water to combine the dough to be soft. Cover and set aside. Bring a small bowl and add cold water to help you smooth the kibbeh as you form each one. In another mixing bowl add the meat, diced onion, parsley and all the rest of the ingredients. Mix together very well. Cut the dough into a medium sized ball.

Dip your fingers in the water to help you open the kibbeh and shape it by pressing down and make a thin shell pocket. Scoop 1 tsp meat mix and place it in the pocket and close it by pinching the edge together. Place the the stuffed kibbeh on the tray wrapped with saran wrap. Do them all and set aside in the fridge. Bring a medium pot, add water half way with 2 tsp salt and bring to boil. Drop in 8 pieces at a time and wait for the water to boil again. You will see the kibbeh rise to the top. Then drop a cup of cold water on top the kibbeh then give it 2 min to cook then take the kibbeh to a serving plate. Served it hot with salad. (The cold water helps the kibbeh to absorb water and to be juicy.)
