About bariis iskukaris

Somali cuisine

Bariis iskukaris, also called isku-dheh karis, is a traditional rice dish from Somali cuisine that is customarily cooked in a single pan or where the tenderization of both rice and stew occurs at some point in a single pan. The name isku-dheh karis literally means "cooked mixed together"; therefore, it is sometimes used to refer broadly to other grain-derived crops that require similar cooking. The more specific term for this dish is this bariis isku-dheh karis, which means "rice (bariis) cooked mixed together".
