Chicken Kusar

My Yemeni friend Sophia taught me how to make this delicious dish. You can use lamb, beef or chicken when making it. This is served with rice and the spooned over the rice. This is another great way to get your family to eat vegetables.

3 cups
1 tablespoon sunflower oil
1 chicken bouillon cube
2 large potatoes, cubed
2 carrots, sliced
