Nan-e Sabzi Mashhadi - Persian Herb Flatbread

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

Nan-e Keshta – Skillet Pumpkin Flatbread

Nan-e Keshta – Skillet Pumpkin Flatbread

Happy World Bread Day 2023! Zorra from Blog Kochtopf has invited to bake bread as usual. I celebrate this great day here and here with many other bloggers and prepared Nan-e Keshta – Skillet Pumpkin Flatbread. The skillet pumpkin flatbread doesn’t require any yeast or baking powder, which makes it just rise a little bit. This bread is a traditional street food from Gilan, in the north of Iran, by the Caspian Sea. The bread is called Nan-e Keshta (نان کِشتا) in Gilani and is also known as Nan-e Khorfe (نان خُرفه) or -Kholfe (خُلفه). In addition, I have a stuffed version of pumpkin flatbread for you today. The filling is with ground walnuts, powdered sugar, and cinnamon. So you get two dishes from one dough. This way, both team sweeties and team savory can enjoy the meal.

Kabab Koobideh – Grilled Minced Meat Kabab کباک کوبیده

Kabab Koobideh – Grilled Minced Meat Kabab کباک کوبیده

Kabab Koobideh – Grilled Minced Meat Kabab کباک کوبیده is the ultimate favorite dish of all Persians and our National dish. It is no wonder why it is on the menu of every Persian restaurant, both in Iran and all over the world. Kabab translates to grilled, and Koobideh originates from the Persian word koobidan, which means to beat. Nowadays, the meat is passed through a meat grinder and used as minced meat for Kabab Koobideh. Traditionally, the meat was placed on a flat stone and smashed with a wooden mallet. According to the legend, ancient Persian soldiers used to grill the meat on their swords before going to battle. The challenge with Kabab Koobideh is that it does not fall off the wide, flat skewer (Seekh) while grilling over hot charcoals.
