The most famous Egyptian food Molokhia with Broiled Chicken

Recipe Tip:-
Don't Cover Don't Boil:
In Egypt many decades ago they used to determine the best bride who can cook well by making her cook Molokheya, if she failed then she's not a good cook, and if she succeeded then she's an expert cook; how is that? They called the bad Molokhia "Molokheya Sa'ata" which means "fallen Molokheya", the failed Molokheya has two layers one is the green Molokheya at the bottom and the other layer on the top is about 1 inch of broth, and when you stir they mix and just get back to two layers again; that's caused by three things whether you 1 added so much broth, 2 covered Molokheya while cooking or after adding "Ta'aleya" (garlic and butter mix), you shouldn't cover it; or 3 you boiled it, NEVER boil Molokheya not even simmer, cooking it is like making Turkish coffee you cook it over low heat and once heated and going to simmer remove from heat right away.
