Mulukhiya, also known as jute mallow or molokhia, is a nutrient-rich green commonly used in Middle Eastern, North African, and Egyptian cuisines. This leafy vegetable is packed with vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A, C, and E, which support immune health and skin vitality. It is also a good source of potassium, calcium, and magnesium, essential for bone health and heart function. Mulukhiya contains dietary fiber, aiding digestion, and antioxidants that combat free radicals in the body. Traditionally cooked into soups or stews, it has a slimy texture when boiled, which helps naturally thicken dishes. While Mulukhiya is low in fat and rich in nutrients, recipes often include oil or salt, which could affect its overall health profile. Incorporating Mulukhiya into meals is an excellent way to enjoy a flavorful and wholesome addition to your diet.
