Description
This is a very yummy rice stuffing recipe that is most commonly used in the middle east. It is used to stuff lamb, chicken, and just about anything else you want! I will be posting recipes that will call for "hashweh"!
*this recipe calls for lamb meat to be finely chopped, but i normally just use hamburger meat and it turns out aweomse! 🙂 also, just a personally preference, but this really tastes great with both the almonds and the pine nuts! Enjoy!
