Khlea

Eggs with khlīʿ and cumin.

Khlea or khlii (Arabic: الخليع) is a preserved meat, usually made with beef or lamb, originating from Morocco[1] and Algeria.[2][3] Khlea is made by cutting meat into strips and letting it dry in the sun after marinating it in garlic, coriander and cumin.[4] The meat is cooked in a mixture of water, oil and animal fat.[5] Upon cooling, the meat is submerged in more animal fat and left to dry. Khlea can be preserved for up to two years at room temperature.[6]
