Dish
Maklouba, also known as Maqluba, is a traditional Levantine dish that is popular in Palestinian, Jordanian, Syrian, and Lebanese cuisines. The name “Maklouba” translates to “upside-down” in Arabic, and the dish is named as such because it is typically assembled in a pot, cooked, and then flipped upside down before serving. This flipping process results in a visually stunning presentation with the rice, meat, and vegetables arranged in layers.
