This soup is so filling you don’t need much else for dinner! Fish chowder might intimidate people and is usually very heavy and fattening. This is my lighter and healthier version and I promise if you buy fresh fish, there is nothing fishy about this soup.
Matbucha is a cooked dish of roasted tomatoes, peppers, garlic and chili peppers. The name of the dish originates from Arabic and means “cooked salad”. It is beyond delicious and I love making extra to put in my sunny side up eggs, in sandwiches, as the base to my shakshuka, on top of chicken, salmon etc.
These are so easy and healthy. I made them prettier by calling them pops and not balls and also putting little heart sticks in them. Feel free to play around with this recipe and add shredded coconut, sprinkles, orange zest, confectioners sugar or nuts.
I know that grilling onions seems like an extra step, but I promise it’s worth it and is so quick! I like to make double the amount and have for future salads, eggs, sandwiches or pastas.
