Thu, 16 Apr 2009 01:53:59 -0400

Produces a light fluffy, tasty grain. I always use chicken or beef stock depending what I am serving it with. May be made yellow by adding 1/2 tsp turmeric. Enjoy this with Recipe #365961 with or without stock, Recipe #363669, Recipe #11761 or other stews, kabobs, etc. -- posted by UmmBinat

This Middle Eastern dish is a family favorite. The blend of the spices coupled with the tartness of the lemon makes it out of this world. This recipe has been passed down in my family for many years. -- posted by AngieInMichigan

Timman Z'affaran (Iraqi Saffron Rice With Meat)

Thu, 27 Aug 2009 02:44:48 -0400

There are similar recipes on Zaar but this is our favorite version. It is a very delicious Iraqi rice dish that can be served as a bed of rice for other dishes such as Recipe #384628 or roast lamb or as part of a buffet. We eat this as a meal sometimes in itself with yogurt and a fresh salad. From The Complete Middle East Cookbook by Tess Mallos. -- posted by UmmBinat

Fried Fish With Rice (Kuwaiti & Emratie)

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 14:20:44 -0500

Fish with rice is often served in homes in the Arabian Gulf. Kuwaitis in particular love their Zubadi (Silver Pomfret) fish that is local to them but can be found in the frozen section of many Middle Eastern & Asian shops. (You may have to degut them yourself). While some prefer to eat them dry with rice, others like ourselves, make Recipe #387327 to serve as an accompaniment. This recipe is a very tasty combination from three sources which all deserve credit, Sa-mak ma-ga-lee - Fried Fish from From "The Complete United Arab Emirates Cookbook", by Celia Ann Brock- Al Ansari, Mtabag Simach from "Cardamom and Lime: Recipes from the Arabian Gulf", by Sarah Al-Hamad, and http://mimisrecipes.blogspot.com. -- posted by UmmBinat
