When I was born, we had Meghli<\/strong> – a vegan pudding<\/strong> made from rice flour with a topping of many kinds of nuts. Meghli(<\/strong> pronouncedMirrleh<\/strong> ) was also given at the birth of each of my siblings. It was there at the birth of my mother, my father, and all the relatives I know and even those I don’t know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rice pudding for strength<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You have probably already combined right away: among the Lebanese it is a custom<\/strong> that for every birth, this pudding flavored with cinnamon<\/strong> and Caraway<\/strong> is served. The mother is not only served meghli, but also a strong tea<\/strong> made of Caraway and some cinnamon to stimulate milk production. Nowadays, no one needs to be told that nuts and seeds are very healthy – and so this delicious mix of spices<\/strong> and nut oils<\/strong> hopefully benefits the child greatly via the mother’s milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The perfect mix for the topping<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to toppings for the meghli, preferences vary. Some like their rice pudding with almonds<\/strong> and cashews<\/strong>, others prefer coconut flakes<\/strong> and pine nuts<\/strong>. My version is a colorful<\/strong> mix for which you need the following ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Coconut flakes<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Almonds<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Walnuts<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Pine nuts<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Pistachios<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    If you roast the nuts in a pan without fat, the topping for the Lebanese dessert<\/strong> will have more flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    But let’s be honest… This rice pudding is way too delicious to wait until the birth of someone’s child. Meghli tastes amazing on any other day, so give it a try and create your favorite topping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
