Method

Saute the onions in the 3-4 tablespoons olive oil
Add the beef cubes or the chicken cutlets, sear for 3-4 min on each side
Add 1 liter of water or just enough to cover the meat
Cook over medium heat until the meat is done (I usually do this in the pressure cooker and press them for 5 min)
Add the frozen mulukhyia and stir until it thaws completely and then comes to a boil
In another pan add the 1/4 to 1/2 cup of olive oil and the cloves of garlic and cook over medium low heat until you can smell the garlic (don’t brown it, it will become bitter)
Add the oil and garlic to the mulukhyia and lower the heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes
Add salt to taste
Serve with a generous amount of lemon juice and optionally with short grain rice or pita bread
