Foori
Foori is a traditional Middle Eastern dish that has gained popularity worldwide for its rich flavors and aromatic spices. The term "foori" is derived from the Arabic word "fawri," which means "to roast." This dish is typically prepared by roasting a variety of vegetables, such as eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, and potatoes, along with meat like lamb or chicken, and sometimes even fish. The vegetables are often cut into chunks and marinated in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and a blend of spices that may include cumin, coriander, paprika, and cinnamon. The meat is usually seasoned with similar spices and then combined with the vegetables. The entire mixture is then roasted in a large, flat pan or on a grill until the vegetables are tender and the meat is cooked through. Foori is often served with flatbread or rice and is enjoyed as a hearty, flavorful meal that showcases the diverse culinary traditions of the Middle East.
