Pistachio khoresh-e fesenjan from Food of Life, Fourth Edition (25th Anniversary): Ancient Persian and Modern Iranian Cooking and Ceremonies (page 318) by Najmieh Batmanglij

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    A variation of "Pomegranate khoresh with chicken (Khoresh-e fesenjan ba jujeh)" recipe on same page. Can substitute beets, quinces, carrots or prunes for butternut squash, and sugar for grape molasses.

    This was really very good. The sauce had a wonderful sweet and sour note, which helped to cut through the richness from the pistachios. Make sure to cut the squash in small cubes- mine were about an inch and rather al dente.
