DOHA, Qatar, Dec. 17, 2020-- Qatar National Tourism Council (QNTC) will release a new culinary video, as part of a nine-part streaming series, to mark Qatars National Day on 18 December and promote the countrys diverse cuisines, connecting the international community to local Qatari delicacies.

The video introduces Qatari Chef Noor Al Mazroei as she shares her traditional recipe and insider tips for cooking Machboos, Qatars national dish. The video is part of a culinary series, which features some of the countrys most renowned chefs and gives the world an insight into Qatars expanding food scene.

Secretary General of Qatar National Tourism Council and Group Chief Executive of Qatar Airways, His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker, said: "Working with Chef Noor Al Mazroei to celebrate Qatar National Day gives us the pleasure of showcasing a local delicacy and bringing a small but integral part of Qatars heritage to kitchens around the world."

"Our expanding culinary landscape blends the best of traditional flavours and dishes with modern twists and we look forward to welcoming guests to Qatar to experience our rich and evolving food scene first-hand."

The rich and flavoursome rice dish, Machboos, is the national dish of Qatar. Its depth of flavour comes from a combination of aromatic spices that produce a smoky taste. Served with a variety of meats, the dish is a favourite across the Arabian Sea.
