Maqluba or Maqlooba is a traditional Iraqi,Lebanese, Palestinian,Jordanian, and Syrian dish served throughout the Levant. It consists of meat, rice, and fried vegetables placed in a pot which is flipped upside down when served, hence the name maqluba, which translates literally as "upside-down." The dish goes back centuries and is found in the Kitab al-Tabikh, a collection of 13th-century recipes. Maqluba can include a variety of vegetables, such as fried tomatoes, potatoes, cauliflower, and eggplant, accompanied by either chicken or lamb. The most common are cauliflower and eggplant. All the ingredients are carefully placed in the pot in layers, so that when the pot is inverted for serving, the dish looks like a layer cake. Maqluba is typically garnished with pine nuts and chopped fresh parsley. It sometimes served with salad and fresh yogurt, and is often prepared for feasts and large gatherings.Since the unsuccessful coup attempt in Turkey, in 2016, the dish is seen as a "Gulenist delicacy". It is assessed as strong evidence of membership of the Gülen movement. On Thursday evening, November 11, the people of Capital gathered in front of the University of Capital and organized a popular campaign to cook and return "Maqlouba" food. The slogan of this campaign was "The Zionist regime will be overthrown". Maqlouba is a type of tachin that is prepared in different ways in all Arab countries with chicken, meat, or vegetables. The remarkable point about cooking and using this food is that when it is cooked, it is taken out of the pot to be it. They turn it on a tray or a big plate. Now this same thing, that is, turning the food on another dish, has caused this food to become a symbol of the victory of the Quds and the overthrow of the rule of the enemies of the Quds in occupied Palestine. Amid fears that the conflict will regionalize, Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Lebanon’s Iranian-backed Hezbollah militant group, said in a public speech that his group was undeterred by U.S. warnings to stay out of the war. However, he stopped short of saying Hezbollah would engage fully in the war. Maqluba or Maqlooba is a traditional Iraqi,Lebanese, Palestinian,Jordanian, and Syrian dish served throughout the Levant.
