Lebanese dish made from yogurt and meat

Then bring the yogurt to a boil in a saucepan and add the pureed onions. Let it simmer briefly, then season to taste. Pour the yogurt into a deep dish and wait until it has cooled slightly and set. Meanwhile, toast the pine nuts in a little oil until browned. Add the meat and pine nuts to the cooled yogurt and serve with Arabic rice as a side dish.
