Rice and vermicelli is a common combination in Arab and Turkish cooking - it has a lighter texture than rice on its own.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love Indian food, and my favourite dish is dal rice.
Turkish cuisine is, to my mind, one of the most exciting and accomplished in the world.
Middle Eastern cuisine has the same depth of ingredients and processes as other cuisines. They just haven't had as much exposure.
Long-, medium- and short-grain rices differ in the amount and type of starch they have.
I love using rice as a flour; I'll grind roasted rice and dip fish in that. It gives a beautiful, crunchy texture.
If I'm in the 'hood, I like Chef Creole's Haitian rice and stewed chicken.
I can make chicken curry, rice, kheema... I am a foodie and enjoy varied cuisines. My favourites are Korean and Japanese.
Mexican, Mediterranean, Italian, sushi, I love it all. Put it on a plate, and as long as I know what it is, I will eat it.
The food I eat the most is probably steamed, plain white rice. I know its really, really, really boring, but that's honestly the food I eat the most. No, I like cucumber avocado rolls... I love that.
The combination of lentils with rice or bulgur is the absolute height of Levantine comfort food. I could eat it every day.
