Preparation
Traditional way
After a cow or a goat give birth, her milk is taken and boiled in a tannour. Shathab (ruta graveolens), nigella sativa seeds, salt and smoked ghee (Samn makbi) are added to the milk while it is boiling.[1]
Modern way
Yemeni people in the cities who don't have goats or cows prepare the libba using different ingredients: 8 eggs, 1 cup of milk, 1 cup of dairy milk, 2 cup of condensed milk, a small amount of citric acid or lemon and salt, half teaspoon of yeast, ghee, shathab (ruta graveolens), nigella sativa seeds.[1][2]
