Yes Beryani word originated in Iran. It was originally a lamb or chicken and rice dish marinated with yogurt, pomegranates, raisins and such, cooked in a tanur oven. However nowadays it is mainly used to refer to a special type of kebab cooked in Esfahan region of Iran.
Rice has many words in...
Iranian rice comes under many different names, however they are all very similar to Basmati. So much so that the difference between Indian Basmati and local rice is not distinguishable. Iranians abroad also just always buy Basmati as it is same as iranian and easily found everywhere.
Well according to my figures we import 0.6 million tons of rice annually. Also Iran has a humid jungle climate in the north, where rice production takes place. We also have forest areas dispersed throughout the country, just in case we need more farm area.
Here is a map of Iran's biotopes...
In the rest of the middle east bread is the staple. In Iran I would say rice is the staple, although bread is still important.
Iran has many paddy fields in the northern regions. The plan of the government is to increase the paddy fields and become totally self sufficient in rice production...
No problem.
Just to clarify, the article is a sarcastic response to a serious article in the Associated Press written by Pamela Sampson. In the serious article she claimed countries that spent money on sky scrapers and museums made better use of it then Venezuela, who spent money on eradicating...
Very true...

Dr Paul simply said that the US should not be the world police. That they would be better off if they concentrated on their own country without sticking their noses in to everybody else's business. For this he was called crazy and a lunatic.:disagree:
Yeah exactly. Honestly what is the difference between Obama and Romney? They are pretty much exactly the same. Both work for the big banks, media, oil speculators and military industrial complex.
Dr Paul had no chance with all the establishment against him. With Fox News, CNN, MSNBC and everybody else calling him crazy and even making up stories about him being a racist.
Even worse then that they gave him virtually no air time. Even when he was leading the polls in some preliminaries...
Yeah, then when something like 9/11 happens they act all surprised and shocked. Thinking "why me?", not for one second questioning that it was their own government who created and funded these animals.
Wow, what an incredible airhead this Pamela Sampson is. I wonder how people that stupid manage to turn on their computers, let alone right an article on it.
It is really funny to me how foreigners pretend to know what is best for Syrian people, more so then an actual Syrian like Syrian Lion, who is the only real Syrian we have here. Not including the false flagger free syrian guy.
Don't try to argue with BordoEnes. He never has anything productive to say. He just comes in with his broken English accusing people of being "pathetic". It's the only thing he does.
