Molokhia (Melokiyah, etc.) is a traditional dish in Egypt. Some people believe it originated among Egyptians during the time of the Pharaohs. Others believe that it was first prepared by ancient Jews (the plant is also known as Jew's mallow). The leaves of this plant have a mucilaginous (thickening) quality that helps thicken the soup. The ingredient is rare if at all available in the U.S. fresh but it can be found frozen in Middle Eastern grocery stores. This is a delicious soup that can be your meal starter, a main dish, served with a side of Pita bread, or poured over white rice.
