Molokhia Leaves with Chicken

Ingredients

• 500 g fresh molokhia leaves (blanched in water with 1 tbsp sugar, then frozen)
• 400 g chicken breast, finely diced
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 1 packet Knorr stock powder
• Black pepper
• About 1 cup cold water
• 1 cup ice-cold water
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• Salt and a pinch of cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg

Method

1. Fry the chicken with 1/2 tsp salt, black pepper and a pinch of cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg, and set aside.
2. Fry the molokhia in the oil until wilted, adding water little by little whenever it dries. Once the leaves are tender, add the chicken and the cold water with the stock powder. Taste and adjust the salt and pepper. Serve with fried nuts and white rice.
