An indispensable, fragrant blend of spices for Eastern Mediterranean cooking, Turkish Baharat seasoning puts a unique stamp on this Persian-inspired dish. The blend starts with traditional Baharat ingredients: Black Pepper, Cardamom, Cloves, Cumin, Nutmeg, Coriander and Paprika plus the addition of Mint and Cinnamon. Cooked in a turmeric and yoghurt stock and garnished with a nutty mixture of sour dried barberries and cashews, this chicken and rice meal has global comfort food written all over it.
