A traditional dish made in many Arab Countries especially in Ramadan. It's an important one in Middle Eastern cuisine. A super delicious and a healthy one on any given day. It's absolutely easy and effortlessly done without loads of spices either. It has just Black Pepper and Salt for the spice along with Bottle Gourd and Lamb bone-in. That's it. Nothing much goes into this preparation.
And needless to say, it's one of our Prophet's favourite food as well. He was always fond of simple but healthy food. This one was eaten with some freshly done Bread with Barley or Jau. And any and every Vegetable from the Gourd family can be used like Pumpkin, Bottle Gourd, Butternut Squash etc. You will love it's simplicity. And it's delicious too. Basically it's a thin Soup with minimal ingredients. That's it. Tharid or Thareed or Tashreeb or Trid or Taghrib, known by many names, but it's largely a Bread Soup with pieces of it in it's bowl.
Do try this for your families and relish it's superb taste and texture. I bet you will agree with me. Let's get started.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Steps

1 hour

1

Add everything to a large pot and allow it to come to a rolling boil on a high heat at first. As it starts boiling vigorously, lower the heat and simmer. The important point to be noted here is that it should be slow cooked.
2

Without a lid on, keep simmering on a low to medium-high heat. Check in between but not much as there is already water in it. Let it cook and release it's juices as well as get reduced naturally.
3

As already mentioned, it is a thin soup. So if one litre of water remains, that's more than enough for a family of five. You can definitely check for salt and pepper. Adjust accordingly.
4

If desired, a little of chopped coriander leaves can be added. That's it. All ready and done to be enjoyed with some freshly baked bread at home or store bought whichever is more convenient.
5

Now for the serving suggestions, one can either add pieces of bread directly to the soup and eat. Or can just dip and eat as well. It's one's own choice. Either ways, you will just love it. Filling and a comfort food by all means. Healthy Eating!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
