## Ingredients

### Meat and yogurt

- 1 kg beef or lamb, with or without bone
- Bay leaf
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 2 cardamom pods
- Cloves
- Nutmeg
- 1 tsp white pepper
- Salt
- 1 kg yogurt
- 2 large whole onions, peeled
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp cornstarch dissolved in 1/4 cup cold water

### Rice

- 3 cups Egyptian rice

## Method

1. Boil the meat and skim the foam, then add the onions, garlic and spices and cook until tender (1 hour in a pressure cooker).
2. Yogurt: put the yogurt in a pot, add the cornstarch and stir well. Turn on the heat and keep stirring on medium without stopping until it boils, then lower the heat. Press the boiled onions through a sieve into the yogurt, add about 2 cups of the meat stock and the meat, and let it simmer together. Add salt to taste (about 1 tbsp).
