Jazarieh

(جزرية)

Jazarieh is a Lebanese and Syrian treat consisting of either grated pumpkin shreds or grared carrots that are cooked in a sweet sugar syrup. The dish is mainly enjoyed as a dessert, and it typically has a soft, jam-like texture. Occasionally, carrots or pumpkin shreds are spiced or combined with nuts, and the dish is usually served garnished with pistachios, blanched almonds, or walnuts.


The name jazarieh stems from the word jazar (carrot) due to the orange color of the pumpkin that resembles carrots. In Syria, jazarieh is particularly connected with the city Latakia.
