Lahme Bil Karaz is not popular in Hama, I lived in Aleppo for a while and heard about Lahmeh Bil Karaz but never tried it. I suggest for you this website http://parisalep.wordpress.com/ written by a lady from Aleppo but living in France, she is sharing Syrian recipes too and specially from Aleppo, the website is in French.

Also hoping to make Lahma bil karaz... my absolute favourite dish, and an Aleppine speciality. You can't get the cherries fresh here, but there's an excellent French compote that does the job! Do you make it much? I am planning to make these for Eid, I hope - I’ll let you know how the pastry turns out!!

I have been pining for these for years and years; every time I go back to Aleppo, I try and consume as MANY of them as I can - a difficult feat when you're trying to stay balanced! Thank you so much for the recipe of the dough. I've made these using different pastries - both home-made and bought - including home-made croissant pastry, and although tasy it's never been quite perfect. I'm now eager to try your recipe for the dough and make everyone homesick. You're right - the filling is never as good as the one you can find in Syria, but it's close! I've also used Cornish clotted cream, which (I am a Londoner) is easily available here. I'm loving this site, your recipes are all so familiar, and it's a relief to see Syrian cuisine in a more authentic form. Most other sites either have Lebanese variations, or import additions that are usually delicious but aren't quite what we grew up on and pine for. L x Dimah!
