About Molokhiah
Molokhiah, also known as jute mallow or Jew’s mallow, is a nutrient-rich dish popular in Middle Eastern, North African, and Levantine cuisines. This green leafy plant is typically cooked into a thick soup or stew and enjoyed with rice or bread. Originating in Egypt, Molokhiah is a staple in households across the region, offering an earthy, slightly bitter flavor. Packed with essential vitamins A and C, iron, calcium, and potassium, it provides immune-supporting antioxidants and promotes bone health. Its fiber content aids digestion and supports heart health. Molokhiah is often simmered with garlic, coriander, lemon, and chicken or beef broth, adding protein and flavor. While nutritious, traditional recipes may include generous amounts of oil or stock that could raise calorie levels. Prepared mindfully, Molokhiah is a wholesome addition to a balanced diet, celebrated for its vitamins and robust flavors.
