Makanek, also known as Na'anik, is a type of Arabic sausage. It is made from a combination of spiced ground meat (traditionally lamb and beef) filled into a sheep casing.[1] The casing is then fried to create a sausage. The dish can be spiced with pine nuts, cumin, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, vinegar, and can be cooked with wine. Mankanek is traditionally served with pomegranate molasses.[2][3]
