Ingredients
In the adaptation of Daraba to Liechtensteiner cuisine, we incorporate some traditional Liechtensteiner ingredients and flavors. The original Chadian dish is typically made with ingredients such as lamb, okra, tomatoes, and various spices. In the Liechtensteiner version, we substitute lamb with pork, as it is a more commonly consumed meat in Liechtenstein. Additionally, we add Liechtensteiner spices such as caraway and marjoram to enhance the flavor profile and give it a unique twist. We alse have the original recipe for Daraba, so you can check it out.
