About this dish
The fritter version is made from a semi-thin batter of wheat flour which is poured into hot oil and deep-fried. The earliest known recipe for the dish comes from a 10th-century Arabic cookbook and was originally made by pouring the batter through a coconut shell. Zalabiyeh differs from lokma in that it is made from batter rather than yeast dough, though the names are sometimes used interchangeably.
