I left the fennel seed out because DH doesn't like it. He used this spice mix on chicken. Made for Ramadan Tag

    This isn't a bad mix. I tried it on chicken tenders. Maybe just a little to pungent for me. I used ground cardamom. Thanks made for Ramadan Tag 09.

    I used this on rice and chicken. I lioked it quite a bit. My brother who doesn't usually prefer Middle Eastern spice mixes even liked it. I used anise instead of fennel since that was all I had and they have basically the same flavor. I thought it was good, not too strong for me though I only used a little bit of it, about a 1/2 tsp. for one serving of rice and chicken. In the past I had used a kebsa recipe but it was nothing like this and it also had loomi in it (which I don't usually have on hand) so this is an simple and different alternative. It smells strong but turns out slightly sweet and slightly spicy (depending on how much pepper you add to it.) Thanks for posting this UmmBinat.
