Classic Omani Braised Shrimp Kebabs

Assemble the ingredients: shrimp, olive oil, bay leaf, butter, lemon juice, onion, salt.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the shrimp and cook until braised.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Omani flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Omani accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
