About Makdous
Makdous is a traditional Middle Eastern dish, particularly popular in Levantine cuisine. It consists of baby eggplants that are stuffed with a mixture of walnuts, red peppers, garlic, and spices, then preserved in olive oil. This vibrant and flavorful dish is known for its tangy, earthy taste, making it a staple in many households as a side dish or appetizer. Packed with plant-based ingredients, Makdous provides a good source of fiber, antioxidants, and heart-healthy fats from the walnuts and olive oil. Eggplants are low in calories and rich in vitamins and minerals, further boosting the nutritional profile. However, due to the oil-preservation method, Makdous can be high in calories and sodium depending on preparation. Moderation is key for enjoying its benefits while balancing its indulgent aspects. It’s a delicious way to incorporate Mediterranean flavors into a balanced diet.
