Interesting. I've never seen or heard about anyone eating Koshary with bread (or using their hands for that matter). Usually you'd just eat it with a spoon.
An upside with the dish is that you can control the carb/protein ratio by adjusting the amount of lentils and chickpeas compared to pasta and rice, for example.
Yes, Egyptians eat it with a spoon. When I was there we used bread because we shared this and other stuff and I enjoyed adding more carbs, because I was very hungry.
