Mansaf (Arabic: منسف [ˈmansaf]) is a traditional Jordanian dish made of lamb cooked in a sauce of fermented dried yogurt and served with rice or bulgur.[1]
It is a popular dish eaten throughout the Levant. It is considered the national dish of Jordan, and can also be found in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Syria.[2] The name of the dish comes from the term "large tray" or "large dish".[3] The dish evolved greatly between the 1940s and late 1980s, undergoing changes in the recipe as well as in the preparation process.
