Ingredients: 2 pounds frozen mulukhiya; 1 onion, halved; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1 bay leaf; 4 or 5 cardamom grains; 6 large boneless chicken breasts; olive oil; 15-20 cloves garlic, crushed; 1 tablespoon dried coriander; 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Servings: persons

2 pounds frozen mulukhiya
1 onion, halved
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 bay leaf
4 or 5 cardamom grains
6 large boneless chicken breasts
olive oil
15-20 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon dried coriander
1 tablespoon lemon juice

1
Place the frozen packets of mulukhiya into a pot of boiling water. Stir until completely thawed.
2
In a separate pot, boil the onion, salt, and bay leaf; toss in cardamom tied in a muslin bag; then add chicken and cook until tender. Remove chicken, cut into small strips, and fry in olive oil.
3
Throw out the bagged cardamom, as it has done its job. Mash the onion and throw it back into the soup, bringing it to a fast boil.
4
Add the now-thawed mulukhiya and simmer for about 5 minutes. Do not overcook, as this will make all the leaves sink to the bottom of the pot; it is essential that they remain floating at or near the top.
5
Mix together the crushed garlic and the dried coriander and fry it in olive oil until it is golden brown. Add to the boiling mulukhiya and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir in lemon juice.
6
Serve in bowls while piping hot.
