Kubbe

"This is a traditional Middle Eastern appetizer. It is torpedo shaped and crispy on the outside and has a meat and onion filling. Time consuming, but delicious. Can be frozen raw, and fried straight from the freezer for a delicious treat, dipped in Tahini. This recipe has been in the family for ages."
