Mouloukia, also spelled molokhia or jute leaves, is a nutrient-rich green commonly used in Middle Eastern, North African, and Southeast Asian cuisines. Known for its earthy, slightly slimy texture when cooked, it is often prepared as a hearty stew flavored with garlic, lemon, and spices, served alongside rice or bread. Mouloukia is packed with essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin A, calcium, and iron, making it excellent for supporting immune function, bone health, and overall vitality. It is also a good source of dietary fiber, which aids digestion and promotes gut health. Low in calories and fat, Mouloukia is a versatile addition to a balanced diet. However, the dish's healthiness can vary depending on the ingredients used, such as high-fat oils or sodium-rich broths often added during preparation. Enjoyed responsibly, Mouloukia provides both flavor and nourishment.
