Mandi is an extremely popular Yemeni dish that has successfully established itself as a staple food in the Arabian Peninsula and other countries like Egypt, Turkey, and the Levant. This spicy dish has a moist, dewy texture, which explains its name, meaning \u201cnada\/ dew.\u201d Mandi requires a lot of cooking time, almost 8 hours, as the meat is placed inside a tandoor with a low flame. This is why you won\u2019t find many authentic Mandi restaurants in Dubai that use traditional recipes and natural spices.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mandi can be made from any meat, but most people prefer to eat chicken or lamb mandi, depending on their preferences. This dish is made of three components: meat, rice and hawaij (spice-mix.) The best mandi restaurants in Dubai often marinate their meat in hawaij for a long duration of time after roasting the spices for 2-3 minutes on the stove. The slow-cooked meat and rice often give mandi a smoky yet soft flavour, creating a harmonious blend of exotic spices and natural ingredients.<\/span><\/p>\n
