This is the first time I have seen a recipe with mallow. It grows here in Petach Tikva as a wild plant in many places, where unused waste land is available. Does one need to separate the stalks from the leaves or can they be cooked together?
Wild mallow (hubeza) is very common throughout Israel and used a lot in Israeli and arabic dishes. If the stalks are thick and woody, then yes, I would remove them, however if they are young leaves, then you can chop then up with the leaves and cook them together. Enjoy!!
