About Matbucha

Matbucha is a traditional North African dish commonly associated with Moroccan and Israeli cuisine. This flavorful cooked salad is made primarily from tomatoes, roasted red peppers, garlic, and chili peppers, slow-simmered with olive oil until tender and deeply aromatic. Matbucha is typically served as a dip, side dish, or condiment, often paired with bread or used to enhance a variety of meals. Rich in vitamins A and C from the tomatoes and peppers, this dish is packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. Olive oil contributes healthy fats that can support heart health, but the dish can be calorie-dense if consumed in large quantities due to the oil. Additionally, the inclusion of chili peppers may boost metabolism. Matbucha is naturally vegan, gluten-free, and versatile, making it a nutritious and flavorful addition to a balanced diet.
