An Unknown Dish From Egypt.
24 Answers
A few years ago I took a pleasure cruise on the river Nile through the capital Cairo. In this surprisingly beautiful city from the river we steamed though the heart of it past magnificent old buildings. We had a lovely buffet lunch in the saloon below deck and later we had musical entertainment including the ubiquitous belly-dancers. After a prodigious number of courses I went to see what was for pudding and was directed by a wiling server to a large bowl of similar appearance to thin porridge but of a light brown colour. I accepted the recommendation and took a small bowl to my table. It was one of those moments one never forgets, it was absolutely delicious. I had a second helping of a larger portion and was anxious to know what it was called. Unfortunately with all the noise and a language barrier I didn't catch what was said. All I can do is describe it as written above and say the taste was sweet but overly so with a consistency of semolina but nothing like the taste. Can anyone who knows the cuisine or indeed has had this dish on one of these boats help me with the name of it. I would be eternally grateful.
