Hi Dede!you've got some great recipes here.I live here in Qatar and recently i had this awesome rice dish from an Egyptian restuarent(its a small place and nobody speaks English).Its plain yellow rice(tastes heavenly!)with grilled chicken,potatoes(looked red but not hot) and this soup or broth with loads of pine nuts.
I so want to know what those are and the recipes because that seem to be the only rice dish my twin toddlers seem to eat.
Dede,hope you will help me out...thanks a million..

Thanks Dede! Looks great. I love brown rice cooked in the mediterranean way. One question, can I omit the bouillon cube? I don't use these because of the MSG in them. Will it still taste fine or should I add vegetable broth to it?

Yes you can eliminate the bouillion, just use the chicken or vegetable broth instead

hi Dede!...this is my first time on your website and I think its awesome because Im partialy Lebanese but unfortunately I dont live there.Ive been to Lebanon many times so I know mostly all the recipes you made.
I didnt come to change your recipe or anything,its just that I make brown rice all the time because Its my all time favourite dish I learned from my aunt in Lebanon and I dont know if u have diferent recipe but the important this when making this kinda rice is to cook it few minutes after you brown the noodles and then add the water.That makes it even better and prevents it from stickying...I also love to add rice spices and pine nuts which are traditional.
anyway,I love your website and thanx a lot for showing all the recipes!!!....gd luck and bye!!
