I don't know how to translate this word. In Yiddish they are called "farfelu". Russian dumplings or something. Ukrainian dumplings. It's roasted, like grits, flour. In Hebrew it is known to all "ptitim". They say that when Israel came to the Jews from Iraq, they immediately began to look for rice. But in Israel, the rice is growing, and with other products was not very Jewish... Then the government figured out how to meet the needs of the population. The rice began to cook out the flour. Since the dumplings in the form of rice called "lake Ben Gurion" (figure Ben Gurion - by the name of the then Prime Minister). Today "ptitim" sell different forms. These - in the form of couscous, coloured with carrot and spinach. And Israeli dishes is roast Jerusalem (meurav Yerushalmi). The dish is just a house. I someone told me that this Jerusalem is the next hot story. Jerusalem was once a restaurant. And somehow there came a very important guest, and it was already late and a lot of food left. Cook mix all kinds of meat, which he had left, added spices, and so prepared.
