@lydmama: Machboos 🇶🇦 The whole family loved it! 🤤 let me know how you make it and what I should do differently!! This is super easy to make and extremely delicious!! 2tbsp ghee, olive oil or butter 1 large yellow onion, chopped 2 Roma tomato, chopped (no seeds) Bunch of cilantro, chopped 1in piece ginger, minced 3 cloves garlic, minced 3 dried limes 2 bay leaves Seasoning mix (below) 2tsp cardamom powder 2tsp cinnamon 2tsp ground cumin 2tsp black pepper 2tsp salt 2tsp turmeric 2tsp ground cloves 2tsp paprika 2c basmati rice 3.5-4c chicken stock (4c liquid to 2c rice) 6-8 chicken drumsticks, legs, whatever you’d like. In a big pot, add the ghee or oil and heat. Add the onion and cook until it has color, then add tomato, cilantro, garlic, ginger, limes and half the seasoning mix. Cook on low with lid on for 8-10 minutes until tomato is fully cooked. Then add the chicken, the other half of seasonings and combine. Add 1 cup of the chicken stock, bring to boil and lower heat to low and cook with lid on for 45 minutes until chicken is done. Remove only the chicken and place on baking sheet, broil in the oven until crispy. Wash the basmati rice and add it to the pot, along with 2.5 more cups of chicken stock. We want 4 cups of liquid total to 2 cups of rice. Gauge how much you have and add more accordingly. Bring to low boil, lower heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes with the lid on. Once it’s done, remove likes and bay leaves. Plate it up and enjoy! What country / meal should I do next?! #qatar #machboos #Recipe #fyp #middleeasternfood

It looks very good! It’s actually more Kuwaiti than Qatari. In Qatar, we usually add more tomatoes and tomato paste, so the color is much darker. We also don’t use chicken stock.
Your version is more like the one we make for desert picnics, and it’s delicious. eat it with spicy Krsal sauce and yogurt. And salad

For Kuwait 🇰🇼, you should try to make Gabout. It’s made of dumplings boiled in meat stew. It’s very delicious and wildly known as one of the traditional dishes from Kuwait

You actually did a great job for a first timer!!! And you’re right every country cook it differently and every house in the country also does it differently, It depends on your preference in the dish.

As someone from Bahrain, it’s a good Machboos. Bravo. You should add tomato paste when sautéing your onions and use red onions instead of white onions. Also, sautée really well until the vegetables are all melted almost. Great job ❤️
