Most Popular Dishes in Jordan: Part Two!

Writing Challenge: Day 7

2. Maqlubah:
Literally means upside down. It's not uncommon that my foreigner friends contact me after they leave Jordan to ask about the recipe of maqlubah, especially the one that they had in my house. This healthy meal consist of layers of rice, chicken, potato, eggplant and cauliflower. After it's done cooking, you put a tray on the pot and flip it upside down, hence the name "maqlubah". The final result looks like a well-made cake, and eaten with some cold yogurt or green salad. Other versions of maqlubah include rice, chicken and fresh broad beans. Some even prefer maqlubah with lamb meat instead of chicken.

3. Mah-shi (Stuffed):
Dolma as the world knows it is simply called Mah-shi in Jordan. Mahshi literally means stuffed, be it stuffed grape leaves, zucchini, eggplants, pumpkin, you name it! The stuffing is usually 75% rice, 25% meat and the meal is served hot. There is another vegetarian version of Mahshi called "Yalanji" where only grape leaves are stuffed with rice and vegetables. Potato slices are cooked in the same pot too, and the meal is mostly served cold.

I would like to ask about this correction please:
I meant to say that we stuff the grape leaves, or any of the other vegetables, with rice and meat. So if we said "be it with grape leaves", does it mean that grape leaves are part of the stuffing or is it being stuffed with something? :D

I'm sorry! I miss interpreted the sentence. In that case, you might want to say, "Mahshi literally means "stuffed", whether stuffed grape leaves, zucchini, eggplants, pumpkin, you name it!".

I hope this helps!
