25 Responses to “A delightful way to make a tasty Lebanese squash dish. This is a vegetarian alternative to kousa mihshi stuffed with rice, garbanzo beans, parsley, and tomato, is satisfying and wonderfully seasoned. If the light green, very tender, Lebanese summer squash are unavailable, use small yellow crooknecks of dark green zucchini. Mexican squash varieties are very similar to Lebanese and might be found in farmers’ markets. Seeds for Lebanese squash are available through a few seed companies, if you care to grow your own. This tasty summer dish can be made with or without garbanzo beans; mint is also an optional ingredient.

OK, I will keep my eye out for some brass. I think it is between 1/2 and 3/4 inch diameter from looking at how she fits her finger in it and the size of hole. If I get one made I will post it. Thanks again. You have some good vids.
I haven’t seen it in person for quite awhile…it is Linda’s tool. My rough guess is 1/4″ diameter. I think anything to help you hold the grip, would be a welcome improvement. I’d love to ‘see’ it when you finish, desertblbuesman!
I would just chuck the tubing in a vice and use my sawzall to cut the tubing. fastest way I can think of with the tools I have. Then grind it pretty and grind the inside to keep the edge on the Outside diameter. What is the diameter of the tubing you are using there? Are you happy with this size? I am just looking at the one you use here. is there any improvements you think might be good? maybe a wood handle? I could turn one fast on the lathe.
Linda said she has seen them in kitchen supply stores. Or, try searching online. I found one on amazon that’s called a zucchini corer. I did a halfway-okay job using a standard potato peeler…but it can scrape out only so much. Those are just some ideas, HighPlainsWoman!
Wonderful recipe. I am going to try this. HOpe this video is still up harvest time next year. I can make the corer easily enough. Many thanks for sharing this.
This video will come in handy for using all the squash and tomatoes I’ll be growing next year. Anyone know where to buy one of those squash scrappers? I can’t think of anything that I could use as a substitute tool.

It looked time consuming but worth the effort since I love trying new vegetarian dishes.
