Egyptian Mahshi

Mahshi is an Egyptian cuisine made for guests and larger parties. It's seasoned rice and onions stuffed inside zucchini, bell peppers, and eggplant. It is a traditional favorite among Egyptian families because it's usually served at large gathering. For travelers to the Middle East, this is a good option if you are vegetarian. This is usually difficult considering most of the food in the Middle East consists of a lot of meat. However, with the mahshi meal, you can request it whenever going to restaurants or if you are invited over someone’s house it’s a good vegetarian option to request.
