Sabich, or sabih, is a sandwich of pita or laffa bread stuffed with fried eggplants, hard-boiled eggs, chopped salad, parsley, amba, and tahini sauce. It is a staple of Israeli cuisine based on a traditional Iraqi Jewish breakfast, created in Israel by Sabich Tzvi Halabi, an Iraqi Jewish immigrant, in the early 1960s, who combined ingredients traditionally served separately into a single pita.
