Hi Joel!
As you must know by now, I'm a big fan of food writing and recipes. I was drawn to this one because you mentioned it was your grandparents' recipe, and I love the idea of preserving family recipes, and am intrigued by how food has changed over the generations.

This recipe is easy to follow, and I think most people who are even slightly familiar with recipes would be able to reproduce this food. It uses simple ingredients that are still available today. My only question - what is a 'packet' of dry yeast? How much dry yeast is that? We buy ours in jars or similar - far more than a single serving in each container.

The pie, or fatayer, sounds tasty. I'd love to know more about the background of these - are they a common Lebanese food? A traditional one? Do they come in other flavours and if they do, do those have different names?

This needs a proofread and an edit, which is the reason I'm only giving 4 stars. Although it is entirely readable and easy to follow, like any written work, good punctuation and grammar make it more enjoyable to the reader. Mostly it's missing capital letters at the beginning of sentences, simple things like that. Check your short description too - grand parent's should be grandparents' (or if there was only one grandparent being referred to, then grandparent's).

Thanks for sharing. I just might try this one out!
