Review on Norpro 649 Stainless 12 Quart Roaster by Shawn Xayamonty

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect for Oven Mandi

Mandi is an Arabic dish primarily native to Yemen but very popular in the Gulf States. Cooked over a slow simmering desert pit fire for 4-5 hours. I chose to do this in the oven and needed a pan big enough to put a layer of rice on the bottom and the meat on top separate from the rice. So the rice is cooked with drops of fat and juice from the meat. This experiment worked great. I bought a Stove Steamer https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B075SXP2Z8 to raise the included heavy duty rack over rice to place meat on top. The quality is reliable and I've been using it for a year without any problems. Be careful wash it. You must be careful not to erase the entire glossy surface. Recipe attached, have fun cooking!
