Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Slice the eggplant into 2cm thick pieces.
- On a baking tray, put a generous glug of olive oil. Take a slice of eggplant and dip it in the oil, then turning over and dipping again until well covered. Place on the baking tray and repeat for all eggplant slices. Use more olive oil if needed. Bake in the oven until brown.
- On another baking tray, place the lamb chops. Season with salt and pepper. Bake in the oven until brown.
- In a bowl, add the rice, seven spices, salt and pepper. Mix together.
- Grab a deep pot and cut out a circular piece of parchment paper to fit the bottom. Spray the bottom of the bottom with oil and place in your parchment paper.
- Add in your cooked lamb chops, followed by your cooked eggplant slices and then pour over your uncooked rice mixture.
- Add 5 cups of hot water.
- Bring to a boil, half cover with the lid and reduce to a simmer. Let cook for 20 minutes or until all the water has evaporated. Remove the lid.
- Find a large flat plate and place it on top of the pot. Holding onto the plate and pot handles, quickly lift and flip upside down.
- Lift the pot up to reveal your Maklouba and remove the parchment paper.
- Sprinkle pine nuts over and enjoy!

UPSIDE DOWN (MAQLUBA)
This perfect meal features all four food groups. It is inspired by the Arabic dish called 'Maqluba,' which translates to 'upside down.' When the meal has finished cooking, you take the pot and flip it upside down onto a large serving platter, and everybody helps themselves.

Steps:
- Bring to a boil the water, onion, garlic, cinnamon, turmeric, garam masala, salt, and pepper in a large pot. Add the lamb; reduce the heat to low and simmer 15 to 20 minutes. Separate the lamb from the liquid and set aside. Transfer the liquid to a bowl.
- While the lamb mixture simmers, heat the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Fry the eggplant slices in the hot oil, assuring the pieces do not touch, until brown on both sides; remove to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Use the same procedure to fry the zucchini and the cauliflower. Cook the broccoli in the oil until hot and remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Layer the lamb into the bottom of the large pot. Arrange the eggplant, zucchini, broccoli, and cauliflower on top of the lamb in layers. Pour the rice over the meat and vegetables, shaking the pot gently to allow the rice to settle into the dish. Pour the reserved cooking liquid from the lamb over the mixture until it is completely covered. Add water if needed.
- Cover the pot and simmer over low heat until the rice is soft and the liquid is absorbed, 30 to 45 minutes. Remove the lid from the pot. Place a large platter over the pot and flip the pot so the dish is "upside down" on the platter. Serve with yogurt on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F, for the cauliflower.
- Rinse and drain the rice and set aside.
- Dice the onion (chop up fairly finely).
- Chop up the eggplant, courgette and capsicum into rough cube shapes. Basically, quarter the eggplant and courgette lengthwise, then slice.
- Slice the tomatoes into rounds and set aside.
- Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized pieces.
- Arrange the cauliflower pieces on a baking sheet and drizzle 1 Tbsp of EV olive oil all over. Sprinkle a ¼ tsp of salt and some freshly ground black pepper and roast for about 20 at 180˚C/350˚F. Flip halfway through the cooking time.
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
- Sauté the onions for about 3-4 minutes.
- Add meat, allspice, salt and some pepper, stir and brown the meat all over and cook for 10 minutes on medium heat. You want the final result to be a little on the dry side, but not too dry. A little moisture is good.
- Grease your saucepan all over. Then start with layering the bottom with the sliced tomatoes. You'll get 2 layers. Season with salt and pepper, a small sprinkle will do.
- Add half the meat, season with a pinch of salt and some freshly ground black pepper. Then pack down with a potato masher.In my original recipe and video, I place all the meat first. But in these new pictures, you can see that I'm layering the meat along with the rice.So half the meat now, and half later.
- Add all the vegetables, season with salt and pepper and pack down.
- Then top with half the rice, season with salt and pepper and flatten.
- Now we add the second half of the meat, season, and pack down.
- And finally, the second half of the rice. Season with salt and pepper, and pack down.
- Take a small saucer, place it face down on the rice (or use the back of a large spoon), and slowly pour all the stock in. This stops a gap/hole appearing in the rice as you're pouring the stock in. You also don't want to mess with the packed rice and stuff.
- Place the pot on the stovetop, turn the heat on high for 3 minutes to bring everything up to simmering point although you'll probably only see the edges bubbling. When you see the bubbles at the edges, move on to the next step.
- Put the lid on, turn the heat right down and cook for 45 minutes. After that time, if you think the rice isn't done, another 5-10 minutes should suffice.Take the saucepan off the hot hob and leave the rice to rest for 10 minutes before unveiling.
- Take a large plate or serving platter, place it over the pot. Holding the plate tightly against the saucepan, give it a gentle shake. Then slowly, ease the saucepan off the plate. In the video, this happens at around 12:15 minutes.Top with the nuts and parsley.
- If you packed the saucepan as mentioned, it shouldn't collapse. But if it does, no big deal, scatter with pine nuts and parsley and serve.

Steps:
- Cut the chicken into 2 legs, 2 thighs, 2 breasts, and two wings. After cleaning it, place it into a large pot, and add about 1/2 gallon of water, or until all the chicken is covered. Leave on high until it boils, then turn down half way.
- After the water boils, add the boiling cube, and 1 diced onion into the water.
- Peel the carrots, and cut each one into three pieces. Add these to the boiling water.
- Add 1 tablespoon of salt to the boiling water, and taste. Depending on which kind of boiling cube you use, you might need to add another tablespoon or so. The water should not be salty, but have some flavor to it. Be careful because the boiling cube is salty on its own.
- While the chicken is boiling. peel the potatoes, and cut into slices, medium in size. Also peel the eggplant, and cut it into decent sized pieces as well. These vegetables are going to be boiled later on, so we don't want the pieces to be too small.
- Heat up vegetable oil in a frying pan, and fry the potatoes, cauliflower, and eggplant. Keep the fire under them pretty high, because you don't want them to be cooked all the way through, you just want them to be browned. Turn and brown them on both sides, then place in a plate on the side.
- Rinse the rice off, and place in a separate bowl. Add a dash of cumin, and a dash of turmeric. The more rice you use, the more cumin and turmeric you should add. Add the drained can of corn to the rice, as well as the drained can of chick peas. Mix them together in the bowl.
- Once the chicken is cooked, take it out of the water, and brown it on both sides. You can either do this by frying it just for a couple minutes to give it a brown color, or you can place it in the oven on broil. Take the carrots out of the water and place in the plate with the potatoes and cauliflower. We are going to use this stock, so don't dump it! Place it in another bowl.
- In the bottom of the empty pot, cut up the tomato in thick slices and line the bottom of the pot with them. Then place the chicken on top of the tomatoes, with the top part of the chicken facing down.
- Then add the cauliflower on top of the chicken, then the carrots, then the eggplant, then the potatoes. It doesn't have to be perfect, just make sure the bottom of the pot is completely covered.
- Add the rice mixture on top of the potatoes.
- Take the stock that we placed on the side, and slowly pour it on top of the rice. Make it so the stock is about 1 inch above the rice.
- Turn on high, wait until it boils, then turn it halfway down and cover it. When all the water is gone, turn it off.
- Take a large pan, one that has at least a 1 inch edge to it, and put it on top of the pot. Carefully, put one hand on top and one hand on the bottom of the pot and flip it upside down.
- Before removing the pot, tap on the bottom of it so everything settles. Slowly remove the pot, and what you should have is the chicken and vegetables on top of the rice, sort of like an upside down cake. Enjoy!
- I normally just make this for my husband and I, but if you plan on making it for a larger family, just add more potatoes, cauliflower, eggplant, and carrots, as well as more chicken. Also use more rice, depending on how many people you want to serve.
- Some people also put green and red peppers sliced on the bottom of the pot with the tomatoes, before you put the chicken (I don't because my husband doesn't like peppers). Also, sweet potatoes can also be added, prepared just like the regular potatoes.
- This is normally served either with plain yogurt, salad, or Salad with tahina.

MAHA SARSOUR'S MAQLUBA (UPSIDE-DOWN CHICKEN AND RICE)
A Palestinian tradition, maqluba means "upside down" in Arabic and is a pot of stewed meat, rice and fried vegetables, cooked and flipped onto a serving dish to form an impressive tower. In Maha Sarsour's version, the rice is richly spiced with cinnamon, allspice and more, and the chicken simmers to tenderness as it gives its flavor to the rice.

Steps:
- Cut the eggplant into 1/2-inch-thick half-moons. Season well with salt, and let sit 30 minutes. Place the chicken in a large pot (a 10-inch, 5-quart size is ideal), and season well with salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper, ground cumin, cloves, cardamom pods and bay leaves (ideally, do this the day before). Pour 3 cups of boiling water over the rice. Soak for 10 minutes, then drain well.
- To the chicken, add the onion wedges, 1 tablespoon salt and 4 1/2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, covered, over high heat, then turn down to a simmer, and cook for 20 minutes. Drain the chicken, keeping the broth and discarding the onion and spices.
- Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering hot, then fry the carrots, in batches if necessary, turning occasionally until browned, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels, then season lightly with salt. Repeat with the potato, about 3 minutes per side. Repeat with the cauliflower, about 7 minutes per batch. Finally, press the eggplant with paper towel until dry, then fry the eggplant in one layer until browned, about 4 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels, but don't season. (If the eggplant is too oily, press on it with paper towels.)
- Pour out the oil, keeping 2 1/2 tablespoons in the pan. Heat it over medium-high heat and add the vermicelli, stirring until browned, about 2 minutes. Add the drained rice and cook, stirring, to dry it out, about 4 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, the turmeric, cinnamon, allspice, ground cloves, Sazón and garlic, and cook, stirring, until very fragrant.
- Place the chicken back in the pot, skin side down. Place the vegetables on top, then rice. Pour in 4 cups of the chicken broth. Press down on the rice; add more broth or water if needed to bring the liquid barely to the level of the rice. Cover the pot and bring to a boil over high heat, then turn it down to medium low. After 10 minutes, carefully stir just the rice to evenly combine the harder rice on top. Repeat after another 10 minutes. After a total of 30 minutes, the rice should be cooked, but not soft, and the liquid should be absorbed.
- Place a very large serving dish on top of the pot, then, protecting your hands (and maybe with a partner), invert the pot onto the dish in one smooth motion. If there is liquid seeping out, spoon it out or soak it up with paper towels. Let the pot rest at least 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a small pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Fry the pine nuts, stirring constantly, until browned, about 1 minute. Drain on paper towels.
- Lift off the pot to reveal the maqluba, and scatter the pine nuts all over. Serve with yogurt and chopped tomatoes, cucumbers and parsley on the side, seasoned with lemon, salt and olive oil.
