Nan-e Sabzi Mashhadi – Persian Herb Flatbread

There’s nothing quite like the aroma of freshly baked, steaming flatbread. If you’re looking for something special, I highly recommend trying Nan-e Sabzi Mashhadi—a Persian herb flatbread from Mashhad. This flatbread is made with fresh herbs, including spring onions and flat-leaf parsley, and seasoned with turmeric for an extra kick of flavor. The result is a flatbread with a slightly crispy outer layer and a soft, fluffy inside. I used the Birkmann burger bun baking tray to get the perfect texture. It helps make the herb flatbread extra crispy, making it ideal for sharing on any occasion! Watch my preparation video on Instagram
