Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Stuffed fish, Northern style (Mâhi tu por, Shomâli)

      My family has made this for years as a stuffed whole salmon, which is utterly delicious. It was only when referring the the recipe recently that I realised the original is actually for smaller individual fish, and therefore tried it as stuffed trout, wrapped in foil and cooked on a barbecue. Again, delicious - I don't think you can go wrong with this stuffing, really.

      I used the stuffing as a base for a piece of halibut and then poured the sauce over top. The fruit stuffing absorbed the juices from the fish as I imagine is what happens if a whole fish is used. The end result was truly delicious.

Publishers Text

Persian cooking is very suited to the contemporary style of eating. Many of the dishes are vegetarian, and the marriage of sweet and savoury, such as grains and pulses sweetened with fruit and spices, makes for delicious meals. This book showcases a selection of these dishes.
