Maraq, also known as saloona, is a broth dish originating in Yemen, common across the Arabian Peninsula in Oman, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, as well as in Somalia, Ethiopia, Djibouti, Kenya and Indonesia. Its name simply means broth in Arabic. It is made by boiling lamb, chicken or seafood with spices, sauteed onion, garlic, ginger and vegetables until the meat is tender, then serving it on rice with the broth poured on top or offered separately, often finished with a squeeze of fresh lime.
