Maqluba is a delicious Middle Eastern dish originating from Palestine, Jordan, and surrounding regions. This hearty meal features layers of tender rice, seasoned meat—often chicken or lamb—and a colorful array of vegetables like eggplant, potatoes, and tomatoes. Cooked in a one-pot method, Maqluba is flipped upside down before serving, revealing a stunning layered presentation. Packed with protein and fiber, it can be a nutritious choice, although the richness of the meat and added oils may be a consideration for some. Enjoyed at family gatherings, Maqluba is not just food; it's a celebration of culture and togetherness.
