يطبخون الملوخية

إلى اليمين: منظر ظريف… و لكنه مؤثر! هؤلاء المعتقلون من خيار أهل فلسطين حسباً ونسباً… وهم مع ذلك يطبخون الملوخية المحبوبة بأنفسهم لأن السلطات حرمت عليهم اتخاذ الخدم في طهي طعامهم واعداده… و تراهم هنا وقد شمروا عن ساعد الطبخ) وامسكوا بالكسرولات وراحوا يضعون القدوة على الملوخية لتكون لذيذة الطعم… حتى في النفى).

Cooking Molokhia

Right: A cute scene…but touching! These detainees are from the choice of the people of Palestine according to lineage and lineage… Nevertheless, they cook the beloved Molokhia by themselves because the authorities forbade them to take servants to cook and prepare their food… And you see them here having rolled up their cooking sleeves) and they grabbed the casseroles and began to put the bowl on the Molokhia so that it would be delicious in taste …even in exile).
