Maraq (Arabic: مرق) is a Yemeni dish. The word itself simply means "broth" in Arabic. It originated in Yemen. This dish is also found in Somalia, Oman and Indonesia.

## Preparation

The process of cooking maraq would usually begin by boiling some meat with some spices and onions. After the meat is tender and cooked, it is served on a bed of rice. The resulting maraq broth would be served in a bowl on the side. It is also common to squeeze fresh lime into the maraq as it cools down for additional flavor.
