Recipe of Kabsa

Join me and let's see how to make Kabsa

Instructions:

Step 1
• In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté until they become translucent.
Step 2
• Add the chicken or lamb pieces and brown them on all sides. Stir in the Kabsa spice mix and continue to sauté for a few more minutes.
Step 3
• Add the chopped tomatoes, carrots, and red bell pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Step 4
• Rinse the Basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Add the rice to the pot and stir to combine with the other ingredients.
Step 5
• Pour in the chicken or beef broth, and season with salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the meat is tender.
Step 6
• While the Kabsa is cooking, you can prepare the optional garnishes. In a separate pan, lightly toast the slivered almonds until they turn golden, and plump up the raisins by soaking them in hot water.
Step 7
• Once the Kabsa is ready, fluff the rice with a fork and transfer it to a serving platter. Top with the toasted almonds, plumped raisins, and fresh cilantro or parsley.
Step 8
• Serve your delicious Kabsa hot and enjoy this flavorful Saudi Arabian dish with family and friends.
