Chicken Thareed
 
Today's Round the World for £4 or Less took us to Qatar with Thareed “ Thareed is a very common dish made during Ramadan as it is light on the stomach. It is basically a crispy flat bread layered with meat soup. Thareed can be made with lamb, chicken, and also with just vegetables. “

1 large Carrot cut into 4 pieces
4 medium Tomatoes, chopped
2 Black Limes cut in half
3 Chillies sliced
3 cubes of Chicken Stock
1 tablespoon of Arabic Bizar spice mix – see below (Optional)
 
1 teaspoon Cinnamon powder
1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
1 teaspoon Black Lime powder 
1 teaspoon Curry powder
1 teaspoon Coriander powder
1 teaspoon Cardamom powder
½ teaspoon Black Pepper powder
¼ teaspoon chilli powder 
 
¼ cup Coriander, finely chopped
3 Pitta Breads opened out. (We used Gluten Free)
 
Method:-:

(3) Add the Tomato purée and all of the vegetables, except the Courgette. Mix together to coat the vegetables with the tomato paste.
(4) Add the Black Limes.
(5) Add the Chicken meat, Stock, and the remaining ingredients except the  Courgette and  Coriander.

This recipe suggested that we put the Pitta bread in the bottom of a large casserole dish and pour the Thareed over them. We did as we were told, but really they we a soggy mess! Just dip them and enjoy!
