Persian Meatballs in Turmeric Tomato Broth (aka Koofteh)⁠ .⁠ .⁠ When it comes to comfort food, I think of big bold and fresh flavors simmering away. ⁠ ⁠ I used a dried herb blend called sabzi koufteh that is a mixture of basil, tarragon and cilantro. The aroma is intoxicating and I want to put it in everything!⁠ ⁠ The herb blend is mixed into meatballs with lentils and rice and then simmered in the most glorious savory turmeric broth. ⁠ ⁠ Of course, you could always use the same herb blend with fresh herbs but I love the punch of flavor the dried herbs offer. ⁠ ⁠ Persian Meatballs in Turmeric Broth (Koofteh) Recipe link in Bio!⁠

There are a few tricks to making perfect Persian rice and for that oh so addictive crispy bottom aka tahdig. ⁠ ⁠ 1. Rinse basmati over and over until the water runs clear, this will make the rice fluffy and not clumpy. ⁠ ⁠ 2. Pair boil the rice until it's soft on the outside but still hard in the middle. I do a little "pinch" test and pinch a rice kernel between my fingers to see how it feels. ⁠ ⁠ 3. Use your cheapest pan/pot for this recipe. Nothing heavy, which will help for the flip, if you chose to. ⁠ ⁠ 4. For the bottom crispy layer, coat with oil/butter/yogurt, turmeric and/or saffron and lay an even layer of rice..this will be your masterpiece!⁠ ⁠ 5. And finally, have fun with the flavors. Keep it simple or dress it up like I did here with pistachios, sweet dates and warm cardamom. ⁠ ⁠ Now who's ready to make Persian rice?⁠ ⁠ Persian Rice with Dates and Pistachios: Recipe link in Bio!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠
