Kubbeh

Kubbeh, also known as kubbe, is a family of dishes Iraqi and Kurdish Jewish origin that are popular in Israel, and are traditionally served for Shabbat and other holidays; and consist of a filled dumpling soup, with a wide array of fillings and soup broths. Once almost exclusively made at home by members of the Iraqi and Kurdish Jewish community, since the early 20th century the popularity of the dish has expanded to Israelis of all backgrounds and is commonly served in restaurants across the nation, most notably in the Machane Yehuda market in Jerusalem.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
