Mufarraket Kousa with minced meat

A succulent traditional dish of sautéed zucchini cubes slow-cooked with spiced minced meat and onions. This flavorful medley is usually garnished with fresh parsley or pine nuts and served with a side of yogurt.

🥄 Ingredients

• Ingredients:
• 1 kg large zucchini
• 10 eggs
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 0.25 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp salt
• 3 tbsp ghee
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• For the zucchini casserole with minced meat:
• 1 kg zucchini
• 12 eggs
• 250 g minced meat
• 2 medium onions (150 g)
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 0.25 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp salt
• 3 tbsp ghee
• 2 tbsp olive oil

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preparation method: Wash the zucchini with a brush to remove any sand, as previously mentioned, and cut it into medium-sized cubes.
2. Heat the ghee and olive oil in a pan until hot. Add the zucchini and sauté for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with a little water and cover for 10 minutes, or until the zucchini is fully cooked.
3. Now add the beaten eggs, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and cinnamon. This will help the eggs adhere and prevent any unpleasant smell from the mixture. Stir-fry for about 3 minutes over high heat until the eggs are completely set.
4. For the zucchini and minced meat version, you will need to prepare the meat with a tablespoon of ghee, olive oil, and onions. Sauté them briefly, covered, over low heat for about 1.5 hour, or until the meat is cooked through. Then follow the same steps as for the zucchini and ghee version.

🌹 Decoration

Garnish the mfarkeh with sliced ​​tomatoes, fresh red bell peppers, and chopped parsley.
