Sudanese Dish (Story)

This dish may not be a Sudanese Dish officially, but a sister made this dish one jumah and brought it to the masjid when I lived in Iowa.Alhumdulilah it was So good and I've been making it since then,and calling it my Sudanese dish even though it might not be an actual dish from Sudan Allahu Alim When I moved to Des Moines Iowa from New York I went to my first jumah, It was nice the sister's there were soooooo friendly alhumdulilah I was sorta taken back by it, because they just seemed overly friendly masha Allah.I met the Imam and his wife masha Allah they were a very nice and religious couple. I introduced my self and my two children and explained to them that I was new to Iowa and needed help with furniture masha Allah they were so kind the next day this Pakistani brother Abdullah knocked on my door and brought me a let out couch,a lamp and some end tables he was in school there and was moving to another state so he gave me all of his funiture masha Allah may Allah continue to bless that brother and his family Ameen . It was such a surprise, because the imam and his wife wasn't sure if they new anyone at the time who could help me so anywho I got furniture and my uncle(not muslim)May Allah guide him and the rest of my family Ameen got a house for us and helped me with my bills for a few months until I could get back on my feet.My uncle was sooo surprised about me getting furniture from muslim he hadn't seen that he was sorta thinking I would go to the churches for assistance because he only new of churches at the time so he was surprise that I went to the masjid and was able to get assistance alhumdulilah he definitely saw muslims in a different light. He was very happy that I was able to get help and I was even happier because I was able to get help from the muslims with me having two kids' Mash Allah . Sorry I'm veering off as usual ok so back to jumah lol:) so my children and I were at jumah and like I said the sister's were extremely nice masha Allah they was serving food and chatting with me and was asking me how I came to islam (if I'm married )and if not am I in need of a husband how was it in New York them sister's weren't shy with the questions at all masha Allah. With all the chatting and questions I only took maybe one or two bites of this rice dish one of the sisters gave me but I was thinking in the mist of the questions dang this rice stuff is good lol :) my son was down stairs with the brothers and they had food as well and he ate some of the rice stuff too, when we were on our way home my son asked me what food did you all have upstairs (we always do this specially during Ramadan on the way home we would ask each other what did you eat and what was in it did you like it and so forth ). So on the way home he asked me did y'all have that rice stuff ? I said yeah it was goooooood huh? He goes yeah.Then we started trying to guess what was in it. We knew it had rice,ground beef,and peas,onions but wasn't too sure of the seasoning. That following Sunday the masjid had a family day my kids and I went and a few of the same sister's I met at jumah were there so I asked one of the sister's who made that rice dish we had on jumah? She said oh sister soNso the Sudanese sister right there(this is why I call it Sudanese dish) and pointed to the sisters I asked her how to make it and so here it goes Insha Allah.
