Since Ramadan is around the corner, I am going to review a Qatari dish that people usually have during Ramadan and that is Thareed. Here is a Lamb Thareed when it is ready to serve. You can visit the website for Thareed recipe.  Thareed consists of khobuz Ragag, which is a crispy thin Arabic bread, soaked in either meat or chicken soup called Saloona. Saloona is a meat or chicken sauce that mixed with vegetable such as potatoes, tomatoes and carrots.
