I’ve been in a bit of a food rut and was wondering what I would cook for dinner when I came across this photo of mine of a bowl of koshary, a Cairene staple.

I had lunch at Koshary Abou Tarek, the home of this dish of pasta, lentils, chickpeas, rice, crispy fried onions, tomato sauce, and hot sauce. It’s the only meal on the menu and is available in different quantities.

I don’t think I will make this for dinner tonight, but I will definitely keep it in mind for sometime soon.
