How to Cook Hindbeh (Allet)?

Ingredients

• Hindbeh (endive/chicory)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda (bicarbonate)
• Olive oil
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1 onion, cut into wedges and tossed with a little cornstarch for coating
• Salt

Method

1. Wash the hindbeh very well, then chop it coarsely.
2. Boil it for just 15 minutes. Add the baking soda to the cooking water so it cooks faster and keeps its bright green color.
   Timers: 15 min
3. Squeeze out the excess water well. Sauté the chopped onion in olive oil until softened, then add the hindbeh and salt to taste and toss together.
4. In a second pan, fry the onion wedges coated with a little cornstarch to make crispy onions.
5. When the hindbeh is cooked, transfer it to a serving plate and garnish with the crispy onions.
6. Let it cool before serving.
