If you had to introduce someone to Somali food, what dish would you pick?

[Magan Joseph]

That sounds delicious.

Specially if the odkac was cut into thin slices instead of tiny cubes and drenched in fresh subag lo’aad

Fry some onions with cumin, black pepper, coriander, cinnamon and a quartered lemon. Add water shoulder Waslad (preferably goat) and various vegetables. Remove waslad from stew, put everything through a strainer. Cook basmati rice with the goat stock, no extra water (this is why goat is preferable if it was sheep your rice would smell).

Pan sear the goat waslad so it has a crust. Serve with rice and hot sauce made of a little date blended with jalapeno peppers.

I know a guy who ate this every day until he had a double bypass.
