He ate something called Khazirah (apparently a barley and meat soup) at least once. I've been trying to find out more about it (http://www.sunniforum.com/forum/show...86966-Khazirah) but I've been unable to.

JazakAllah, Brother when you succeed in finding the recipe, please do share in the forum. I think there is a great need of documenting all the authentic recipes. There are lots of wonderful foods which we should be adopting in our daily lives. Its first benefit is the reward of following of our beloved prophet's sunnah and secondly the amazing benefits of these recipes.
