Al-basal or onion or the egyptian broth

It is the Tearing bulb succulent plant. I think Egyptian do love to put this Fruit inside the meat or chicken  broth. It gives a nice taste and it can be hypnotic. If you are working, I advice not to eat this onion containing broth. In weekends, it is funny to eat it and have a good rest after eating.

Cooked onion is nice but uncooked one sound like  harmful to the mouth odour.

Ginger or Dill is a good thing to counteract the odour of the uncooked onion.
 
in Arabic the onion is called al basal or al-basal البصل
