ReplyDeleteCould you tell me what are the spices meat and sweet spices?
i'm fairly sure the writer means pimento when they say sweet spices- ground pimento is found in just about every lebanese dish i can think of. i think they're literally translating the arabic name(bhar hilo).

Thank you for posting this recipe. I have a few questions:
ReplyDeleteHow much water did we boil and add to rice?
Are we waiting for the rice to absorb the water BEFORE cooking for 10 minutes or is it the same time (10minutes)?
What's the difference between 7-spices and meat spices and sweet spices?
