Night 6 — Kosheri

Kosheri is a popular Egyptian dish consisting of rice, spagetti noodles, macaroni noodles, brown lentils, chickpeas, Egyptian garlic, vinegar, and a spicy tomato sauce. It costs 5 Egyptian pounds — about 90 cents — for 1/4 pound and is incredibly tasty.

    Yummy! I love Kosheri, it’s a must-eat whenever I’m in Cairo. It really fills you up and doesn’t cost very much at all. I always ask for more salsa and love the chilli too ;-)
