Koshari, which you might also see spelled Kushari, is the national dish of Egypt. I like to think of it as Egypt’s version of chili mac. The bulk of Koshari is made with chickpeas, lentils, rice, and pasta, and it’s topped with a spiced tomato sauce and crispy onions. Back when it was introduced in the 19th century, Koshari was sold at roadside food carts. I haven’t been to Egypt, but word is that Koshari is on the menu at restaurants all across the country. My first experience with Koshari was at a Middle Eastern restaurant in Chicago called Masada. I instantly fell in love with the combination of textures, flavors, and aromas. Koshari is comfort food at its finest.
