🧂 食材
- 100 g Dried molokhia leaves(Ensure the leaves are finely chopped or ground for a smoother soup. If they are whole, you may need to process them slightly.)
- 1.5 L Chicken broth(High-quality chicken broth is recommended for the best flavor. Vegetable broth can be used as a vegetarian alternative.)
- 8 cloves Garlic(Finely minced or crushed. Adjust to your preference.)
- 2 tbsp Ground coriander(Dried ground coriander is traditional and provides a distinct aroma.)

- 0.5 cup Water(For rehydrating the molokhia.)
- to taste Salt

👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Rehydrate the dried molokhia: In a medium bowl, combine the dried molokhia leaves with 0.5 cup of warm water. Stir well and let it sit for about 10-15 minutes, or until the leaves are softened and rehydrated. The mixture should have a slightly thick consistency.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Prepare the broth: In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a gentle simmer over medium-high heat. Once simmering, reduce the heat to medium-low.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 3
Combine molokhia and broth: Add the rehydrated molokhia mixture to the simmering broth. Stir continuously to break up any clumps and ensure the molokhia is fully incorporated. Bring the soup back to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the soup has thickened slightly and the flavors have melded. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface.
⏱️ 20 minutes - 4
Prepare the 'Taklia' (garlic and coriander sauté): While the molokhia simmers, heat the ghee in a small skillet over medium heat. Once the ghee is hot and shimmering, add the minced garlic and ground coriander. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the garlic is fragrant and lightly golden. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Finish the soup: Pour the hot garlic and coriander mixture (the 'taklia') directly into the simmering molokhia soup. You will hear a characteristic sizzle, which is part of the traditional preparation. Stir well to combine. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 6
Serve: Ladle the hot molokhia soup into bowls. It is traditionally served with Egyptian rice (rice cooked with vermicelli) and fresh bread. A squeeze of lemon juice can be added at the table for extra brightness.
