About Mloukhiye

Mloukhiye, also known as molokhia or jute mallow, is a traditional dish popular in Middle Eastern and North African cuisines, with roots primarily in Egypt, Lebanon, and Palestine. The dish features finely chopped mloukhiye leaves, typically cooked into a thick, flavorful stew. It is seasoned with garlic, coriander, and sometimes lemon, and is often served alongside rice or pita and protein such as chicken, beef, or lamb. Rich in vitamins A, C, and E, along with iron, potassium, and fiber, mloukhiye supports immune function, promotes heart health, and aids digestion. This green superfood is low in calories and packed with antioxidants, making it a nutrient-dense addition to meals. However, the nutritional value may vary depending on added ingredients like oils or salted broth. For a wholesome option, prepare with lean proteins and minimal added fats.
