This is a very old recipe my grandma use to make it in the summer it is pronounced Mu-tableh or Mu-tabli (متبلة) . It is very easy to make. The combination of barley, chick peas and yogurt gives this cold soup a delicious flavor and very refreshing treat for your hot summer afternoon.

Sarah,
Thank you for your kind words, I had to make two overseas calls to get this recipe from my older relatives, this recipe also reminds me of my grandma and my childhood. If you have any questions or need any help please don’t hesitate to leave a comment.
