Stuffed Camel is a well-known Bedouin dish consisting of a massive camel that is stuffed with rice, boiled eggs, and meat items such as chicken, lamb, or fish. First of all, the raw camel is cleaned, the skin is removed, then filled with the ingredients as discussed before, and then the whole stuffed chicken and lamb is placed inside the camel. At the end, this fully-stuffed camel is cooked over coals.
Stuffed Camel is a highly renowned dish among Arab and Emirati sheikhs, as camels symbolize deep-rooted cultural heritage and traditional hospitality. This iconic dish is typically served at major gatherings, weddings, and special occasions in Dubai and other parts of the Middle East. As a remarkable example of Dubai Food, Stuffed Camel can be best enjoyed at Zaman Awal Restaurant, located in Al Boom Tourist Village, Dubai.
