Preparation
Toast the almonds
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Heat a large, dry, oven-safe pot on medium. Add the almonds (roughly chop if whole) and toast, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 min., until fragrant. Transfer to a small bowl and reserve the pot.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, place the rice in a strainer and rinse under cold water, agitating it for 1 min., until the water runs clear. Halve, core and medium-dice the sweet pepper.
Start the hashweh
In the reserved pot, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the onions and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the beef* and sweet pepper; season with the spices and S&P. Cook, breaking up the meat, 4 to 6 min., until cooked through.
Finish the hashweh
To the pot, add the rice, 1 ½ cups water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Cover, transfer to the oven and bake, 14 to 16 min., until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed. Remove from the oven and add the peas. Let sit, covered, for 5 min.
Make the roasted garlic yogurt
Meanwhile, in a second small bowl, combine the yogurt, garlic and S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the hashweh between your plates. Top with the roasted garlic yogurt. Garnish with the almonds. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking ground beef to a minimum internal temperature of 71°C.
