This looks really interesting! I’m going to have to try it sometime! (You wouldn’t happen to know where to get Syrian cheese in San Francisco would you? lol)
What a great way to start the day, with a warm, thick, sweet and salty delicious bowl of porridge like this one! Very nutritious too!
Thanks for sharing it :)
This looks wonderfully delectable. Must think about what to use for SYrian cheese – our grocers have not caught up with all yet! And it looks too good to pass up. love the ingredients! Really pretty blog.
In addition to the cheeses that I had suggested in previous comment, I would like to add this cheese (may be you can find it at a middle eastern store):

Salam,, Dima I was looking for a recipe for Kusa Mutabaq.. and I found your great page!! I am from Hama too… It is my pleasure to know such a proud person like you.. Keep the great work!!
For those who are asking about the cheese.. I think it should be available at the Middle Eastern grocery stores. And for the halomee cheese it is available at superstore in Canada…
I have a very easy recipe for a great white cheese…
All you need is 4 liters of fresh milk you bring it to boil and then take it away from the heat and add a quarter cup of white vinegar.. let it stay for 5 minutes then separate the water from the cheese and if you want the cheese to be salty boil 2 cups of water and when the water become cold soak the cheese in it until it is ready to eat then enjoy!!

Can Syrian cheese be substituted?
Thanks everyone for comments!
tabzchewy and Maya: I have no idea about middle eastern shops in U.S or Europe, but I can suggest other middle eastern cheeses which may be easier to find:
- Ackawi, also spelled Akawi and Akawieh, check:

OR
- Mshalalé, Marianna wrote about it on her blog (Swril & Scramble), check:

This sounds like a comforting dish and must be delicious with the cinnamon! The pine nuts look great on top.
lisa: Thank you for your words! Oh yes, it is delicious with cinnamon!

Soory for the last step you add 2 tbs of salt to the boiled water and then let it cool down…
Kawthar: Thank you so much for your kind words, and thanks for the recipe! I’m glad you stopped by :)
