Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Traditional Arab dish.. HAREES

By Ali, independent tour guide in United Arab Emirates

Harees is the most popular Arabic Arabic traditional dish of Gulf areas specially UAE. Basically it is mashing of meat with whole grains of wheat and then cooked to a thick gluey paste.
Most Muslims believe that it is the favoured dish of Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH)
Some of the best variation of harees are available in public kitchens across the country which are usually cooked in bulk.
Tender threads of meat in porridge is the sign of good quality harees. It is the main course of traditional Arab majlis
Specially in Ramadan it is great iftar divider. Personally I love this dish and as it is my bowl of porridge so I explore many places (including famous chains, public kitchens and small restaurants) where the best Harees of UAE is available

1-Al Tuwar Traditional Kitchen, Satwa
2-Al Surur Traditional Kitchen, Ras Al Khor
3-Al Tawasol,Al Rigga
4-Mahec, Garhoud
5-Times of Arabia, Souk Madinat Jumeirah

These are some well known restaurants and public kitchens where you can get the best original harees.. explore and enjoy…. best of luck..
