askara wa harramiyya, This is a Syro-Palestinian dish

f_zadi · 07-14-2005, 01:19 AM

Does anyone know what "askara wa harramiyya" is and how it is made. Askara wa harramiyya literally means "cops and robbers" so there's not much to go on, but I do know it is made in Lebanon, Syria, and Palestine and that it is a vegetable dish.

Actually, what I know is the " 3askar and 7aramiyyah" game

, called in Morocco " Sheffara wel bolis".

The players are devided to two teams, and one chases the other. I've never heard about that as a dish!!

Yes, it's like "Indians and cowboys" for American kids. I've never heard of this dish in the Maghreb, apparently it is a Arab Levant dish though.

I really have no idea! I hope that Nani will be of some help about that. She seems to be a good cook

It seems no one has heard of this dish.

Someone told me another forum that it's Masbahet al Darwish but without the meat. Any thoughts on why this dish might be renamed askara wa harramiyya?
