Molokhia, also known as Mulukhiyah or Ewedu, is a dish made from the leaves of Corchorus olitorius, a plant that is native to Africa and Asia. The leaves are cooked in a broth with meat or fish, and the resulting dish is a thick, green soup. Molokhia is a popular dish in many countries in the Middle East, North Africa, and West Africa. It is a good source of vitamins A and C, and it is also a good source of fiber.

Steps

1
Done

Wash the Molokhia leaves thoroughly and remove any tough stems. Chop the leaves into small pieces.

2
Done

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion, and sauté until they turn golden brown and fragrant.

3
Done

Add the chopped Molokhia leaves to the pot and stir-fry for a couple of minutes until they wilt.

4
Done

Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and season with salt and pepper. Stir well.

5
Done

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the Molokhia simmer for about 15-20 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld together.

6
Done

After simmering, remove the lid and check the consistency of the Molokhia. If you prefer a thicker texture, you can cook it for a few more minutes, uncovered.

7
Done

Taste the Molokhia and adjust the seasoning if needed.

8
Done

Serve the Molokhia hot over a bed of cooked rice. Squeeze some lemon juice on top for added tanginess, if desired.
