Persian Indian Fusion

For our first recipe, we are going to be doing an Indian Persian mix. Traditionally, Persians do not like spicy food at all, but on the other hand, Indians live by spices and incorporate it into every meal. To kick off our first recipe, we are starting with something very traditional to Iran, but adding an Indian twist to it. Ghormeh sabzi is a Persian dish that is an herb stew with its main ingredients being parsley, leeks or green onions, cilantro, and dried fenugreek leaves. As you can tell, these ingredients may add flavor. Yet, by adding an Indian twist of whole green chilis into the stew changes the flavor dynamic. The result is a vibrant green stew with a spice essence. Simple things like adding chilli’s or switching out ingredients can make all of your traditional dishes winners. Remember, shaking up your usual routine never hurts. And, in fact, it can even revolutionize a common, traditional dish. Stayed tuned for another post of Lay’s Kitchen!
