Like all other Middle East country's Omani cuisine also is a mixture of many other Asian cuisines. Rice is the staple food also they make different varieties of breads. Meat takes an impotent part in the cuisine apart fro meat dishes they also make delicious vegetable dishes also. They have a very less traditional breakfast dishes from those this Khabeesa is one popular dish. Khabeesa is a wheat semolina porridge a very healthy and delicious breakfast so let's check the recipe.
