Ingredients

1- 600 grams of boneless chicken cut in cubes.

2- 2 cups of white rice soaked in coled water for 1 hour and drained.

3- 2 medium size eggplants

4- I large ripe tomatoe peeled and cut in small cubes

5- 3 tea spoons of salt

6- 1 tea spoon of cinamon

7- 1 tea spoon black pepper

8- 1 tea spoon ground anis

9- 1 tea spoon all spice

10- 2 cups of vegitable oil

11- 4 cups of water

12- 1 cup chicken broth.

13- 4 table spoons pine nuts

14- 7 table spoon peeled almonds and halved

15- 1 large onion peeled and chopped finely

Directions

1- Peel the eggplants and cut lengthwise in 1 inch strips. Place in a large bowl and add water and 5 table spoons of salt.

2- Place chicken cubes in a pot with 2 table spoons of vegitable oil and the chopped onion. Add all spices and salt, fry for 5 minutes, cover with 2 cups of water and let simmer for 20 minutes.

3- Drain the eggplants, pat dry on a towel and fry in hot vegitable oil until light brown develops. Remove the eggplant slices from the fryer and place on a clean dry kitchen towel or several clean napikins to remove excess oil.

4- In a large container place all the chicken cubes, then add the tomato, then the fried eggplant and then add the rice. Add the chicken broth and the water remaining from boiling the chicken cubes.

5- The mixture should be covered with liquid about 2 inches.

6- Let boil at high heat and then simmer covered tightly at very low heat for 30-45 minutes.

7- If rice is not yet cooked, then add a bit more water and keep coverd and simmering under low heat until rice is well done. Switch heat off and let cool for 30 minutes.

8- Mean while fry the almonds in 2 table spoons of oil. When slightly browned add the pibne nuts and one table spoon of slat until all are golden brown. DO NOT burn as pine nuts burn easily. set a side to cool in a plate not in the frying pan.

9- Place a large serving dish or tray over the rice pot and flip the container over holding the dish tight. Pat on the pot to let everything come down and settle on the plate.

10- Remove the container slowly, scrab any remains in the pot and add to the dish. It will look like a cake molded with rice.

11- Sprinkle the almonds and the pine nuts over the meat and eggplant which is on top now.

12- Cut peices like you do usually with a cake and serve with yogurt or tomatoes salad with mint.
