    Absolutely amazing. This lamb-infused rice with the sour notes and soggy-crispy bread was fantastic. Thank you so much for the clear instructions!

      Fantastic! This is my mother in law's recipe so it definitely has that home made touch.

    May I make a suggestion? I peel large amounts of garlic, separate into individual cloves. Place in a slightly smaller metal bowl and top and shake vigorously. You can pull the whole cloves out of the bowl easily, then dump the skins into garbage or use them for compost.

    I love this recipe. Just a note for people wanting to do this with BONELESS meat, 1 hour is far too much cooking time you will end up with dry meat. Make sure to keep checking your meat after 30 min mark or use a probe themometer until 145 degrees for it to be perfect + succulent.

    • @MiddleEats
      @MiddleEats  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks for the tip. It definitely depends which cut of meat you get though. Boneless shank would still take quite some time to go tender. I really recommend using the bones as they impart so much flavor to the stock.

    • @heyitsmebee
      @heyitsmebee 3 роки тому +2

      My stew meat (beef) takes 2 hours minimum to get perfectly tender. It definitely depends on the cut.

    There is Egyptian fattah, which gathers rice and bread, there is Lebanese fattah, there is Saudi Makkah Fattah, and there is Syrian fattah, each is completely different from the other, the only common thing among them is shredded fried or roast flat bread.
