Bethica DasFish Machboos
#post20 - This is a traditional Emirati Biryani which is almost similar to the Indian Biryani. It is cooked either with fish, mutton or chicken. This is the former version. I have used King Fish but it can be prepared with the popular Hamour fish too. The only difference is the use of Arabic spice mix / bzar spice and also the use of dried lime that gives a nice flavour to the biryani. Machboos is also popular in other Middle Eastern countries, where they have their own way of preparing it. It is a very easy one-pot meal and a great party recipe too, that can be dished out at short notice. #goldenapron
