Filipino is also pretty foul.

Middle eastern is great though. Ottoman cuisine is outstanding and is the basis for most of what is eaten in the the levant and the balkans. So if you like greek you like it...

Partially cook the rice and lentils, layer them with some raisins and dates in a nonstick pot and steam. Then turn it upside down on a plate. Potatoes at the bottome are optional.
