While living in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia there were many things which made me fall in love with it, in the beginning it was the International Indian School (both Riyadh and Jeddah) later when i got to the home kitchen. I had the passion for cooking since i was in the 5th Grade, I became fond of cooking but i used to be very clumsy and used to make the kitchen a very untidy place after which my mother scolded and taught me how to be good at it and for that i will be thankful to her till my last breath. By the time i moved to Jeddah i was in the 9th grade and by that time most of my friends were roaming around in cars and i used to tag along with them, it was really fun. While doing my Engineering in India i used to visit yearly and the Different and beautiful construction of different kinds of structures enhanced my love for the profession i was preparing for.
So there it is School, cars, buildings and finally the Arabian food. Arabian food always had a special place in my heart, It had a distinctive taste not to spicy but the speciality of the Arabian food is the very essence that lures you in to the delicious food. Here in the KSA there is not just one type of Arabian food, there is Lebanese, Turkish, Iraqi, Irani, Moroccan and many more.
I bought my oven yesterday and decided to cook up a Lebanese Chicken Roast which looks and tastes phenomenal. The ingredients in this recipe were quite simple but i had to use a new ingredient named "sumac". Sumac is a spice which is little purple crystals which looks beautiful and is the core ingredient in many Lebanese dishes.
