Spiced Shrimp and Rice (Machbous Rubyan) image

I was given buharat spice mix for Christmas. Now I'm searching for ways to use it. I haven't made this, but I will. I'm a bit dubious of the long cooking time for the shrimp, and the amount of liquid for the rice, but I'll let you know. I also posted a recipe for the spice mix, similar to the one I was given.

This recipe is a disgrace to Middle Eastern cuisine. The shrimp were dry and the rice was tasteless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not sure why this recipe has so many good reviews. It's the worst shrimp and rice dish I've ever had.
