Harees (Savory Beef and Wheat Porridge)
Adapted from Felicia Campbell. I made this recipe in the slow cooker, but you can also make it in the oven on a low heat, such as 250-275 F. Unlike chicken (which the dish can also be made with) beef will take a very long time to break down. Be sure to use pearled or shelled whole wheat berries. Campbell discusses topping the dish with either Omani Oil (cumin and coriander infused ghee) or cardamom infused ghee. I decided to incorporate both into the dish as well as incorporate the ghee drizzle into the onions and mushrooms. This dish must be started the night before you plan to serve it.
