Omani cuisine is a flavorful mix of Arabian, Indian, and East African influences, reflecting the country’s rich history and coastal location. Popular dishes include “shuwa,” slow-cooked lamb or goat marinated with spices and wrapped in banana leaves, and “majboos,” a spiced rice dish with meat, vegetables, and saffron. “Mashuai,” a dish of dried fish served with rice, is another staple. Omani food often features fragrant spices like cinnamon, turmeric, and cumin, offering a warm and aromatic culinary experience.
