The Traditional Lebanese Labneh Mtawami

When you are preparing barbecue for a Sunday family gathering, or you are going to a picnic, Labneh Mtawami is the easiest appetizer to prepare as part of the Lebanese Mezza.

Popular in the Middle East, Labneh is strained thick yogurt spread, similar to Greek yogurt but thicker in consistency and richer in flavor.

Here are the ingredients:

• 400 g of your favorite brand of Labneh
• 2 Garlic
• ½ Teaspoon of Salt
• A Teaspoon of Dry Mint 
• 3 Tablespoons of Olive Oil

Here are the steps:

• In a small bowl, place the garlic and the salt and start mashing the garlic.
• Add the mixture to the labneh and mix well.
• Place the Labneh in the serving bowl.
• Decorate it with the olive oil and the dry mint.

You can as well decorate the plate with olives, walnut or cucumber.
