Hi cycas:

Thanks for the challenging question! The trick to this one was to find
(and try) the many different names/spellings for Mloukhieh. I have
found the following two stores that sell the seeds for this vegetable.

Bountiful Gardens - Egyptian Spinach — Corchorus olitorius 
URL: http://www.bountifulgardens.org/seeds-books-tools/vegetable-seed/spinach.html
Quote: "Melokheya. Jew's mallow. West African sorrel. Greens for the
hottest time of the year! A great multi-purpose, continuous-harvest
vegetable for hot weather. We don't think of jute as a food crop, but
this form of jute was eaten by the pharaohs (and just about everyone
else from Egypt to Sierra Leone to to the Sudan)."
Price: 100 seeds. C Price $1.75 
Ordering Info: http://www.bountifulgardens.org/order.html

Eden Seeds

Quote: "EGYPTIAN SPINACH (MALU KHIA)
Grows quickly to 1m with several branches. Large leaves used in stir
fries. Sow spring and summer."
Price: Seeds per packet: 180 - AU$2.30
