A rich delicious soup. Good as a part of suhoor or futoor (iftar) the meals before sunrise and fajr prayer and after sunset & maghreb prayer during the month of Ramadan. Here is what the original poster had to say, “This is not only the most popular dish in Greece but Albania as well. The two countries share many recipes. The Greek dish however uses olive oil and mint instead of butter and paprika. This is a hearty, flavorful thick soup, perfect with a light meal or cold night.” Modified from a recipe found on http://www.yasalamcooking.com.

This is a vegetarian joloffe rice – the fresh vegetables added to the sauce can vary or be substituted with frozen mixed vegetables. This Cameroonian-style joloffe rice is made with coconut milk and in the Cameroons it is usually cooked with meat. Basmati rice, although not traditionally used, makes delicious joloffe and requires less liquid when cooking. From cdkitchen.
