Kebda Eskandarani

(كبدة, Kebda, Alexandrian liver)

Kebda Eskandarani or Alexandrian liver is the Alexandrine specialty consisting of fried beef liver with spicy seasonings such as cumin, garlic, cardamom, and chili peppers. It is usually served in sandwiches along with tahini dip, or on its own, accompanied by warm rice, lime wedges, or pita bread on the side.


Although not much is known about the origins of the dish, it is extremely popular in Alexandria, where it can be found at numerous street food carts or fast food shops, perfect for a quick bite or an order to go.
