Chef tips
To maintain molokhia's unique texture, add the leaves at the very end and avoid overboiling the soup. This keeps them a vibrant deep green and preserves their nutritional value. For a hearty family meal, serve over white rice with vermicelli. A squeeze of fresh lemon adds a bright touch that perfectly balances the rich garlic and cilantro flavors.
