قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) أَيَّ شَيْءٍ تُطْعِمُ عِيَالَكَ فِي الشِّتَاءِ قُلْتُ اللَّحْمَ فَإِذَا لَمْ يَكُنِ اللَّحْمُ فَالزَّيْتَ وَ السَّمْنَ قَالَ فَمَا يَمْنَعُكَ عَنْ هَذَا الْكَرْكُورِ فَإِنَّهُ أَمْرَأُ شَيْءٍ فِي الْجَسَدِ يَعْنِي الْمُثَلَّثَةَ قَالَ وَ أَخْبَرَنِي بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا أَنَّ الْمُثَلَّثَةَ يُؤْخَذُ قَفِيزُ أَرُزٍّ وَ قَفِيزُ حِمَّصٍ وَ قَفِيزُ بَاقِلَّى أَوْ غَيْرِهِ مِنَ الْحُبُوبِ ثُمَّ يُرَضُّ جَمِيعاً وَ يُطْبَخُ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Yahya Bin Ibrahim Bin Abu Al Balaad, from his father, from Al Waleed Bin Sabeeh who said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Which thing do you feed your family in the winter?’ I said, ‘The meat. So when there does not happen to be the meat, so the oil, and the butter’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘So what is preventing you from this ‘<span class="iTxt">Karkour’</span>, for it is one of the matters in the body, meaning the trio’. He (the narrator) said, ‘And one of our companions informed me that the trio is taken as a <span class="iTxt">Qafiz</span> (Unit of measurement) of rice, and a <span class="iTxt">Qafiz </span>of Humus, and a <span class="iTxt">Qafiz</span> of broad beans, or something else from the seeds, then mixed and cooked’.
