Harees

Rinse the wheat thoroughly and soak it in water for a few hours or overnight.

In a large pot, heat some ghee or oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic and cook until they become soft and translucent.

Add the chicken or lamb pieces and cook until they are browned on all sides.

Stir in the ground cumin, coriander, cinnamon, turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Cook for a few minutes until the spices are fragrant.

Drain the soaked wheat and add it to the pot. Pour in the water or chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil.

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1-2 hours, or until the wheat is very soft and the meat is tender. Stir occasionally and add more water if necessary.

Once cooked, you can use a hand blender to blend the mixture to your desired consistency, or leave it chunky if you prefer.

Garnish with chopped parsley or cilantro before serving.
