About Harees

Harees, a traditional dish originating from Gulf and Middle Eastern cuisine, is a hearty mixture made primarily of cracked wheat and meat, such as chicken, lamb, or beef. The ingredients are slowly simmered and blended until they reach a creamy, porridge-like consistency. Harees is often seasoned lightly, allowing the natural flavors of the wheat and meat to shine through. It is rich in carbohydrates and protein, making it a filling and nourishing meal. The dish is particularly valued for its energy-providing properties, often enjoyed during Ramadan for breaking fasts. While harees is nutrient-dense, its healthiness depends on preparation methods; the use of excessive butter or oil may increase its calorie and fat content. Overall, harees deserves acclaim as a wholesome, comforting dish that reflects the culinary heritage of its region.
