  3. OOPs sorry I forgot it. It is nutmeg but if use mace in its place if you can get it. If not just leave it out. The cardamom is a great substitute for nutmeg.

    Your dh will like this its a old traditional Yemeni recipe.

  6. Salam alaikum Noor. I used this modified to not contain an intoxicant, as nutmeg is one and I also heard it is not sold in Saudi Arabia because of that? Anyway I used less allspice in its place and the ground ginger. Jazak Allah kheiren for the recipe.

  9. I am not sure what that mix is. UAE and KSA have many different foods but you know I think Malay food is way better than Arab anyway lol.
