Dawood Basha

“Dawood Basha” with pomegranate is one of my favorite dishes! However my husband was not a big fan of it. That’s why I never tried it before. 

This time, I got pomegranate juice but it turned out to be super sour. So, I thought it will perfect to prepare this dish. I was craving it so much! 

It is very easy to do and totally different than the regular “Dawood Basha” you all know.
