Chilaquiles or Foul?

Yes, both are famous breakfast dishes. Foul, no not chicken, is an Egyptian dish consisting of beans and meat in a brownish sauce (more than likely the cooking liquid of the beans and meat). It is served with several condiments, parsley, spicy somethings, onions, ground spices, olive oil, and other stuff. I pretty much had it each morning when I was in Egypt. It's filling, but is it something I look forward to? Not so much.

 

I tried it everywhere I went and it pretty much tasted the same everywhere. Think of loose, watery refried beans that haven't quite been totally pulverized and add some ground beef and you have foul.

 

I am looking forward to some Chilaquiles when I return to the States.
