Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Rub the lamb with a wet cloth, then rub salt, 2 tablespoons of baharat and 1 teaspoon of turmeric onto it. Let it rest

* Step 2

Soak the saffron in the rose water for thirty minutes

* Step 3

Fry onions in 1/2 cup of ghee until tender. Add rice, baharat and turmeric, stirring to coat the rice. Add 5 cups of water, then let it boil. Add salt, then simmer over low heat for 10 minutes.

* Step 4

Preheat oven to 375 F/180 C.

* Step 5

Fry pine nuts, almonds and pistachios in 3 tablespoons of ghee, then add them along with the raisins to the rice. Remove the rice from the heat, and pour 1/2 the rose water mix into it, and leave it for 20 minutes until the liquid has been absorbed.

* Step 6

Fill the lamb cavity with the rice, then sew it up. Place it on a rack in a large baking dish. Brush it with the remaining ghee, then cover it up securely with aluminum foil.

* Step 7

Bake in the oven for 4-5 hours, making sure to baste the lamb occasionally with the pan juices and the remaining rose water. When the meat becomes tender, remove the foil and allow it to brown.
