Majboos (Omani)

Oman

Oman's spiced rice: chicken or lamb over rice cooked in a tomato-baharat broth — the Gulf majboos in Omani dress, milder and fragrant with dried lime. (Cousin to Saudi kabsa; Oman's version leans on its own baharat and dried limes from its monsoon coast.)

Oman's spiced rice: chicken or lamb over rice cooked in a tomato-baharat broth — the Gulf majboos in Omani dress, milder and fragrant with dried lime.

Serve: with salad and daqoos, at Friday family lunches. Flavor: fragrant, tomato-warm, lime-bright.
