Very interesting flavors in this dish, but I don't think they work for me. The garlic was a bit overpowering- I'd leave it out if I make this again. It was a very unique side dish though and worth trying.

Different & exciting! The Picky One didn't like it but I didn't expect she would. Everyone else was pleasantly surprised how much they liked it! Hooray!! Made for Go to Saudi Arabia in the NA/ME Forum 6/13.

I found this recipe intriguing and just had to try it. I must say that I was quite leery of the garlic but went ahead with it. I can see why it was there after tasting and I enjoyed the dish. This is something unique and quite pleasant. Made for North Africa/Middle East forum's "A Month in Arabia"
