Mandi

Country Of Origin: Yemen 🇾🇪

Who knew one dish could have so many different flavours? Mandi is Yemen's national dish, native to Hadhramaut province, consisting of lamb or chicken meat, fragrant basmati rice and a mixture of various spices. To make Mandi, the meat should be cooked in the tandoor, a specially designed hole in the ground covered with clay and charcoal, acting as an oven for the suspended meat above it. It is then closed and no smoke is allowed to go outside as it flavors the meat instead.
