Eggah

Eggah is the thick and heavy Egyptian version of an omelet. However, eggs might not be the main ingredient – they can merely be used as a binding for the filling, which can include chicken, lamb, or various vegetables such as eggplants, leeks, spinach or potato. Eggah is commonly flavored with turmeric, cumin, nutmeg, cinnamon, or fresh herbs. The dish is typically pancake-shaped, and it is served sliced into wedges or rectangles which can be hot or cold.
