Arabic term

دقة

Arabic to English Other Food & Drink
الكشري، تلك الوجبة المصرية المشهورة باسم «أبو دقة

I am not sure if this is just a name or if it means something.

I've found duqqa meaning a nut/spice mixture and daqqa referring to a salad from Gaza (daqqa meaning "ground/crushed"), but neither quite fit.

Very grateful once again for any help.

Thank you.

Nadia - sorry I meant to select your answer, but chose Mohsin's by mistake. His is OK too, but you were first!
Peer comment(s):

agree Fathy Shehatto : I think garlic and vinegar mixture is more proper with this dish. That is to distinguish it from the thick "garlic and vinegar sauce" which is served with KFC.
