Torsh-e Tareh - Vegetarian Herb Stew with Egg

Torsh-e Tareh – Vegetarian Herb Stew with Egg

Today, I’d like to take you on a little culinary adventure to the lush, green north of Iran. To a region called Gilan, where a real gem of a dish awaits: Torsh-e Tareh, a vegetarian herb stew with egg. This dish, lovingly known as Torshi Tareh, is bursting with flavors and healthy ingredients, making it a true standout in Persian cuisine. What really sets Torsh-e Tareh apart is its traditional preparation method in a special clay pot called a gamadj. This unique cooking method gives the stew its unmatched, rich taste. But don’t worry if you don’t have a gamadj at home—you can easily make this dish in a regular pot and still enjoy all the deliciousness it has to offer. If you’re in the mood for something healthy, aromatic, and authentically Persian, Torsh-e Tareh is definitely worth a try. This dish captures the heart and soul of Gilan and brings it right to your table, offering a taste of Iran that you won’t soon forget. Whether you’re already a fan of Persian cuisine or …

Omelette Godje Faranghi – Persian Omelet املت گوجه فرنگی

Omelette Godje Faranghi – Persian Omelet املت گوجه فرنگی

Today I am serving a savory breakfast – a classic, trendy Persian dish called Omelette Godje Faranghi – Persian Omelet املت گوجه فرنگی. In Persia, omelet means a dish with eggs, but it’s quite different from the omelets you may know from Germany, France, or Italy. To prepare persian omelet we use scrambled eggs with fried tomatoes, tomato paste, and spices. We serve it with hot Persian tea, fresh herbs, sir torshi (pickled garlic), fresh traditional Nan-e Lavash, Nan-e Barbari, Nan-e Taftoon, or Nan-e Sangak. Omelet is also often enjoyed with simple steamed rice. So, roll up your sleeves, switch on the stove, and heat the pan to make a delicious breakfast. Enjoy your meal! watch my preparation video on Instagram

It’s wild garlic season, and today, I’ve got a simple recipe for you! I whipped up a Creamy Wild Garlic Hummus with Crispy Flatbread Sticks. If you’re not familiar with hummus, it’s a Middle Eastern dip made primarily from chickpeas. Now, onto my version! I’ve infused it with wild garlic, giving it a beautiful green hue and a deliciously subtle spiciness and garlic flavor. Wild garlic is like a fancier, milder cousin of regular garlic, so it’s perfect if you’re not a fan of the strong garlic smell. Watch my preparation video on Instagram
