Maqluba, meaning "upside-down" in Arabic, is a traditional Palestinian dish made by layering meat (usually chicken or lamb), fried vegetables like eggplant, cauliflower, and potatoes, and spiced rice in a pot, then cooking it all together before flipping it onto a serving platter. The result is a dramatic, layered tower of tender ingredients infused with warm spices such as cinnamon, allspice, and cardamom. Originating from Palestinian cities like Nablus and Jerusalem, Maqluba is a celebratory dish served during family gatherings and holidays, often accompanied by yogurt or salad.
