Ful Medames:
Ful Medames consists of lava beans served with oil, garlic and lemon juice. It can be traced to Pharaonic roots, and quantities have been found in the Twelfth dynasty. The word “Medames” is Coptic for “buried” which refers to the way it was initially cooked: in a pot buried in hot coal or sand. It can be served with many embellishments such as butter, tomato sauce, tahini, fried or boiled eggs and pastrami. However, the most traditional method is to eat it plain and salted in an Egyptian bread bun.
Kushari:
Kushari is the Egyptian national dish, it consists of pasta and tomato sauce, among other items, including rice, lentils, caramelized onions, garlic and chickpeas. Having four sources of carbohydrates has made it the most popular lunch item in most common food outlets in Egypt for over 100 years. Kushari’s origins are not Egyptian at all, in fact it was a dish brought in by the British army in Egypt in the 19th century and the pasta was imported from Italy, the tomatoes are from Latin America and the rice from Asia. The idea to mix them all together in one extremely delicious, tasty and vegetarian dish was conceived in Egypt Country.
