The Middle East is home to some of the world's most delicious dishes, and Syrian cuisine is the crown jewel of regional specialties. The diversity of Middle Eastern food doesn’t fall under one definable cuisine - it crosses borders and blends cultures. While many people associate Middle Eastern food with meat-heavy dishes - in particular lamb - in Syria, our dishes are actually very much the opposite.
Cooking with only the most exceptional seasonal produce, Syrian cuisine uses vegetables, spices and pulses to create its delicious offerings. Using a blend of typically vegan, low carb and gluten free ingredients, Syrian food is versatile and well suited to different dietary needs. Dishes from Middle Eastern kitchens have long been enjoyed around the world, either as main courses or shared with friends or family.
Whether you're looking for the perfect savoury snack to kickstart a meal, or a delicious range of home-delivered meals to map out your week in the most delicious way, Tayybeh's chefs are deeply skilled at creating authentic Middle Eastern and Syrian food using naturally vegetarian and vegan ingredients.
Some of the most delicious vegan meals in the market today actually take inspiration from staple dishes from the Middle East. On World Vegan Day this November 1st, let our family feed yours with some of our favourite Syrian vegan recipes, delivered straight to your door.
Here are the top 6 vegan Tayybeh dishes and snacks!
