A pot of rice, stewed meat and vegetables that's flipped upside down and garnished with toasted nuts. It's a very common dish in the Middle East and absolutely delicious!
This centrepiece dish, popular in Syria, Lebanon and Palestine, normally includes chicken or mutton, rice and lots of vegetables, and is served with yogurt or tahini. This strictly vegetarian version is as wholesome as the original, though. Sami remembers his mother bringing the makloubeh pot to the table and turning it over in front of the children's eyes. You'll need a big, heavy-based pot with a five-litre capacity (23-25cm in diameter, 12cm, or less, deep) and a plate or platter big enough to cover the pot - the plate will be used for unmoulding the rice, much as you do with a pudding.
Mini makloubeh! Not only it’s a lot easier to prepare and serve, it’s also a lot healthier. It’s assembled the same way as ouzi with layers of rice, meat and more eggplant. You can make your own ad…
