Kharoof Mahshi is an oven-roasted whole baby lamb that has been seasoned with spices both inside and out, packed with biryani rice and minced meat, almonds, pistachios, pine nuts, and a variety of spices. This meal is popular throughout the Arab world and is eaten at important events such as weddings, Eid, and family gatherings. A single dish serves 6 to 8 people.
The dish’s origin is primarily associated to Bahrain, despite the fact that it is practically identical to other Saudi Arabian culinary dishes and the taste with the stuffing, fried dry-fruits is just exquisite. During Ramadan, most hotel restaurants in my neighborhood serve this really delicious stuffed Lamb feast at Iftar. The meal is presented in a huge plate with biryani rice and roasted lamb in the heart topped with fried nuts.
Assalam alaikum @OSAMA_1 Alhumdulillah Iam good, thanks for the comment. I tasted this meal (Kharoof) for the first time during my stay in KSA, and it was really fantastic.
Yes my friend @fasi6083 thank you for replying. I am happy you liked this giant Arabic meal Kharouf Mahshi. Of you are still in KSA , please plan to visit me in Jordan, we are not far
Thanks you sharing with us! This Kharouf looks beautiful and delicious, though i have never tried one… Here in Nigeria, we are used to having rice with stew or jellof instead. But i noticed that’s filled with different spices
I learnt that it’s an Arabian culture for all to eat from the same plate, is that still practiced?
Wow, sepertinya lezat dan menggoda. Saya belum pernah menemukannya di Indonesia, atau mungkin sudah ada dengan nama yang lain. Nanti akan saya coba saya tanyakan kepada tetangga Arab saya di sini.
Terimakasih sudah berbagi informasi yang menarik ini, @fasi6083 . Salam dari Kota Batu, Indonesia
