02.01.2022 A few tickets left for Tuesdays Fesenjun class! Tickets are $40 and include my recipe & a 1 hour live demonstration/class via Zoom, 7pm-8pm this coming Tuesday. https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/hameds-persian-kitchen-live... ~~ What is Fesenjun? ~~ Fesenjun is a nutty, sweet and sour chicken stew, thickened generously by walnuts and pomegranate paste and flushed in saffron and turmeric. It is one of the most ancient and lavish of traditional Persian dishes, and many Iranians believe it emerged in the royal kitchens of the Persian empire. In modern day Iran, Fesenjun is an expensive meal to make, and the traditional recipe asks for several hours of patient stirring and attendance, to draw out the walnut oil. It is therefore usually only prepared for special occasions - new years, wedding parties, and for Yalda Night, the Iranian celebration of the winter solstice. You can also expect it whenever your mum wants to make you happy! In Australia though, I make it much more often than that - sometimes even weekly. Having been here now for almost nine years, this dish is an instant memory of my birthplace, my home, and my mothers kitchen. The recipe above details my short-cut version, but it is just as delicious. Fesenjun is also a staple on my menu at SalamaTea

01.01.2022 Persian breakfast- walnut-feta & walnut-herb toops, tahini-grape molasses spread, homemade carrot jam, halva and butter served with Persian flatbread
