439. Iraqi Meat Hamees

Pressure cookers are great for this sort of dish which requires hours of boiling, as they can reduce the cooking time drastically. Maybe some day I might be able to get over my fear of them and start enjoying what they have to offer. If you have a pressure cooker, by all means use it (but be careful!).
