About the Dishes

Vegan Tahchin

Vegan Tahchin is an aromatic Persian rice cake, topped with caramelised barberries, slivered almonds and pistachios. It can be served plain as a side dish, or be filled with vegetables of choice.

In this course I show you how to make a vegan Tahchin filled with caramelised onions and tasty, sautéed zucchini.

Vegan Ghormeh Sabzi

Ghormeh Sabzi is the stew of Persian stews! This hearty stew is packed with herbs and combined with earthy mushrooms, kidney beans and aromatic dried limes, giving it a multifaceted flavour. When you ask Iranians about their favourite food, most of them will say it’s Ghormeh Sabzi.

There are a few things to keep in mind in order to make Ghormeh Sabzi the authentic 'Maman way'. I guide you through what they are in this course.

Vegan Koofteh Nokhodchi

My vegan version of Koofteh Nokhodchi are flavourful Persian chickpea and lentil "meat" balls, made of whole ingredients. I don't use any store-bought meat alternatives or soy products in my recipe. The Koofteh are served in a mouthwatering sauce, that gets a hint of tartness from the dried limes and golden sour prunes in it.

In my course I show you how to prepare Vegan Koofteh Nokhodchi and fluffy, aromatic saffron rice he authentic 'Maman way'.

Vegan Khoresh-e Fesenjan

The vegan version of Khoresh-e Fesenjan is a flavourful Persian pomegranate and walnut stew with roasted butternut squash. If you like sweet and sour flavours, I'm sure you'll love Khoresh-e Fesenjan.

In my course I show you how to prepare Vegan Khoresh-e Fesenjan and fluffy, aromatic saffron rice he authentic 'Maman way'.

Vegan Kashk-e Bademjan

In this course we go in depth with one classic Persian appetiser: Kashke Bademjan. You learn how to master creating this mouthwatering Persian dip in the comfort of your own kitchen.

Kashke Bademjan is a tasty Persian smoked aubergine dish with golden brown, caramelised onions, walnuts and kashk, that give it a multifaceted flavour. 

Kashk is a form of dehydrated yogurt, that has a distinct flavour. You can find it in Iranian grocery stores. In this course I show you how to make your own vegan kashk, so that you can enjoy the vegan version of this beautiful dish, if you choose.

Vegan Kabab Tabei

My vegan version of Kabab Tabei is a flavourful chickpea and lentil "kabab", served with juicy cooked tomatoes and aromatic Persian saffron rice. I don't use any store-bought meat alternatives or soy products in my recipe. The pan "kabab" is served with mouthwatering cooked tomatoes and fluffy, aromatic saffron rice.

In this course I show you step by step how to prepare all the above the authentic 'Maman way'.

Vegan Khoresh-e Karafs

Vegan Khoresh-e Karafs is a hearty celery and herb stew with mushrooms. Fresh lemon juice adds a hint of sourness to the dish, that you can adjust to your liking.

This flavourful Persian stew is a great example of the mouthwatering savoury side of Persian cuisine, that involves lots of herbs, combined with the umami flavour of sautéed mushrooms, in this case.

Vegan Loobia Polo

Loobia Polo is one of the classic Persian dishes! My vegan version of this flavourful rice dish with green beans is made with two different types of sautéed mushrooms to give it that umami flavour.

Persian Saffron Rice with Tahdig

You will learn how to prepare fluffy, aromatic Persian saffron rice and how to make two different versions of tahdig (the crispy bit from the bottom of the pot) - A gorgeous saffron rice tahdig and a golden brown bread tahdig.

As a Persian I have eaten and cooked Loobia Polo many many times with many many different recipes but this one was totally different that I’ve even sent it to my maman and told her to update hers for next time :) Thank you so much Hami joon, I’m sure I’ll be using your all other recipes for anything I’ll cook in future, cause I trust them!.”
