fenugreek, a plant that grows in semi-arid regions, abundant throughout much of the Middle East, with nearly a hundred culinary and other uses, and its use extends to India where it is used in some curries • chicken soup (pre-made) • ground meat (unspecified, I used beef) • oil (olive oil, I suggest) • onions • peppers • eggs • potatoes (my advice is to use very small ones) • lemon • salt • The recipe I accessed did not specify quantities. So it's best to improvise according to intuition and personal taste
