Breakfast

Iraqi Eggs in Tomato Sauce (Makhlama)

~ Liz ~ 9 Comments

I had ‘Makhlama‘ for breakfast this morning. Makhlama simply means “Iraqi Eggs in Tomato Sauce”. The main spice in this recipe is turmeric. At first, I was a bit hesitant about adding turmeric to eggs because I had never done that before. Anyway it turned out so well I’m now planning to eat Makhlama at least once a week. Please use fresh ripe tomatoes for this recipe. I can’t imagine what it would taste like if one added some store bought tomatoes. I would like to thank Sammy and Sufi for this simple but tasty recipe. For original recipe click here.

My Favourite Cakes and Bakes

I eat vegetarian food at lunch time and become a fully fledged carnivore in the evenings. I had these rolls with my vegetable soup today, for lunch. If you want to know what they tasted like, please make and taste them. They were so tasty, flaky and soft. Almost like a pastry.
