How to Make Molokhia (Mloukhieh) - An All-Time Favorite

A step-by-step video on how to make Mloukhieh (aka as Molokhia), one of the most widely popular dishes in the Middle East and North Africa - and it is spreading as far as Japan! Mloukhieh can be prepared out of frozen leaves (hashed or whole) which are widely used, or/and out of dried leaves. Both are available throughout the year. However, Mloukhieh is absolutely unrivaled in season. That’s why I grabbed the opportunity of a summer visit to Lebanon to make this video. The frozen leaves recipe varies only slightly so I gave clarifications accordingly. Find the detailed recipe at the end. The method of making Mloukhieh depends on the region. For example, the Lebanese version is mostly whole-leaves while the Egyptian version is finely chopped and soupy. Both are delicious. Mloukhieh is an all-time favorite for many - including myself! It is often present in family lunch gatherings, which explains the somehow large quantity I prepared in my Mom’s kitchen that day :) Mloukhieh is loaded with vitamins &minerals; it also has potent antioxidant properties. As a dish, it is rich in protein given the meat content. It was reportedly eaten as a soup by Cleopatra for its health, beauty and anti-aging benefits – an anecdote worth considering! I also read that it was banned in Egypt at some point during the Fatimid reign because of its aphrodisiac effect on women. Eventually, it was reinstated to be enjoyed by everyone.
