Method

1. Wash the molokhia and drain it the day before (it's best to wash it ahead of time). Then spread it on a clean cloth and leave it outdoors in the air until it dries. This method is important to ensure the molokhia is dry when cooking and won't become slimy.
2. Chop the onion into wedges and chop the garlic, then sauté them in a little oil.
3. When the sauté softens without browning, add the finely chopped tomatoes and pepper molasses or pepper paste, paprika, and hot pepper, and stir.
4. When the tomatoes are cooked, add the molokhia and stir for about ten minutes or a little longer until the molokhia is cooked.
