Whole Stuffed Camel Recipe
I got this recipe from the website Ramadan Recipes. And I really don't know where you'd get a whole camel - but you can't take the friendly beasts that offer rides at Imhoff Farm near Kommetjie!
To Buy
- 1 whole camel, medium size
- 1 whole lamb, large size
- 20 whole chickens, medium size
- 60 eggs
- 12 kg rice
- 2 kg pine nuts
- 2 kg almonds
- 1 kg pistachio nut
- 110 gallons water
- 5 lbs black pepper
- salt
To Make
1. Skin, trim and clean camel (once you get over the hump), lamb and chicken.
2. Boil until tender.
3. Cook rice until fluffy.
4. Fry nuts until brown and mix with rice.
5. Hard boil eggs and peel.
6. Stuff cooked chickens with hard boiled eggs and rice.
7. Stuff the cooked lamb with stuffed chickens.
8. Add more rice.
9. Stuff the camel with the stuffed lamb and add rest of rice.
10. Broil over large charcoal pit until brown.
11. Spread any remaining rice on large tray and place camel on top of rice.
12. Decorate with boiled eggs and nuts.
This recipe comes from the Bedouins so I guess it's pretty authentic!
