    My vegetarian daughter loves this dish. She asks me to make it at least once a week. She likes things spicy so I add a tablespoon of red pepper flakes.

    Koshari, I like to think of this vegetarian dish as Egyptian-style chilli I was first introduced to it during a trip to Egypt four years ago, where it was nearly all we ate for a week! It’s served in fast food type restaurants, sold from carts by street vendors and made in the home There can be many variations, but this is close to the one I grew to love By the way, this is a great recipe when you need to feed a crowd on the cheap , My vegetarian daughter loves this dish She asks me to make it at least once a week She likes things spicy so I add a tablespoon of red pepper flakes
