Where to eat molokheya
The national green soup, finely chopped and finished with fried garlic.
€ Budget
Molokheya is the dish that divides visitors and unites Egyptians: chopped jute leaves, chicken or rabbit stock, and a sizzling garlic tasha poured over at the end. Egyptian kitchens serve it with rice and bread.
The extra bit
Try it with rabbit if the house offers it: the version for big occasions.
Know before you go
Its texture surprises: it is deliberately slippery, neither a fault nor an accident.
