Arabian cuisine is one of my favorite cuisines. A few weeks ago I found this recipe, as usual, I’ve started to research which is an authentic one. As usual, I found a different version of this emblematic Arabian recipe. This dish combines amazing spices which are so typical of Arabian cuisine. This cuisine is typically known for its spices because they in a specific way helps to extract all aromas from the dish. Lamb is known for a specific smell which a lot of people don’t like, but all these spices change the meat into a perfect dish. Fatteh is several layers of feasting dish, which can be cooked with a different kind of meat.

The meat can be lamb, chicken, veal, and beef. This allows this recipe to be suitable for people with different preferences.
The recipe is not so hard to cook, but you should prepare from being that is not so fast, but the result, in the end, is worth it.
I’ll stop because I’ll share with you details for the recipe.
Please give your comments.
Bon Appetit!
