For our side dishes we used hummus, salad, and basmati rice.
The hummus recipe came from one of my friends (who is once again part of my ethnic friend collection). Hummus is basically mashed up chickpeas (which you can find near the canned beans in a grocery store) with olive oil for consistency and garlic for taste. Find the combination that works for you!
My brother made the rice and it turned out splendidly. The recipe hailed from epicurious.com and it is definitely worth trying. Who knew cinnamon was such a nice addition to non-desserty foods? You can find the recipe at the website bellow…
I recommend using real rice instead of instant rice (it will become mushy). We ended up using the typical Asian rice instead of basmati because our grocery store wasn’t quite up to the ethnic challenge.
Enjoy!
