Although this is a classic oil dish in Coptic cooking, this also makes a great family dinner. You can spice it up with some crushed chilli flakes and top it with Parmesan cheese if you desire. I found this recipe in "The Weekend", the local mag. that comes with the 'Khaleej Times', every Friday. Its a great mag that carries fabulous recipes every week. Hope you enjoy this one.
