👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F).

In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onions until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
⏱️ 7 minutes - 3
Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
⏱️ 1 minute - 4
Stir in the pureed tomatoes, Riyadh Mandi spice mix, turmeric, and salt. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Place the lamb shoulder into the pot, ensuring it's well-coated with the spice mixture. Add about 1 cup of water, cover tightly, and transfer to the preheated oven.
💡 專業提示: Use a tight-fitting lid or aluminum foil to seal the pot. - 6
Slow-cook the lamb for 2 to 2.5 hours, or until it is very tender and easily pulls apart.

While the lamb is cooking, rinse the basmati rice thoroughly until the water runs clear. Drain well.
💡 專業提示: Rinsing removes excess starch, preventing mushy rice. - 8
In a separate pot, combine the rinsed rice, 750ml of water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked.
⏱️ 20 minutes - 9
Once the lamb is cooked, carefully remove it from the pot and set aside. Skim off any excess fat from the cooking liquid.
💡 專業提示: You can shred or serve the lamb whole. - 10
Fluff the cooked rice with a fork. Serve the rice on a large platter, and top with the tender lamb. Garnish with raisins and toasted almonds if desired.
