Its name translates to 'Mother of Ali,' a nod to a legendary tale about a wife who created this dish to celebrate her husband's victory. Today, it remains a staple in Middle Eastern cuisine, cherished for its comforting layers of pastry, milk, and nuts, and has inspired variations across the region and beyond.
