Harees Qatari style

Qatari-style harees is wheat and meat cooked into a thick porridge. Wheat is cooked in lightly salted water before lamb or chicken is added. Continued cooking over low heat softens the grains and meat into a mixture that is mashed to a porridge-like texture.[1][2]

Ghee is placed on top when serving. The dish is part of Qatari and wider Gulf cooking, and is prepared for social occasions, holidays and Ramadan.[1]
