I'm a kiwi from NZ & married a Persian girl in Shiraz in 95. We lived with her family there for 6 months. We always cooked & ate wonderful Persian food. I flew my parents out for our wedding there & I was just looking through my mums fotos of all those years ago. The memories made me want to create something from that time for her & I found your video & made this meal to perfection. Thanks for making this & bringing back wonderful memories. Jeli moharbat kardid.

I was in Iran in September 2022. I loved the friendliness of the people, the culture and the food. I loved this dish and I finally decided to remake it.

That looks so incredibly delicious! My neighbor is from Iran and I was invited to dinner with them. So warm and the food was just amazing! That was also the Zereshk. I'll cook it again. I fell in love with Persian cuisine. I'm going to go to the Persian market here in Hamburg this week and buy the ingredients from your video.

Thank you. I would like to hear how it was

I'm from Belgium. We had Iranian neighbors 20 years ago. Their 21-year-old son committed suicide. Every year on the day son passed away, mother brought us this dish every time. It was sooo delicious. We ate it very happily (with little sadness from son). After years I went to an Iranian restaurant and I ordered this dish. It was absolutely not as tasty as what made us neighbour. I'm sure this prep in this video is going to be as delicious as our neighbor made it. Thank you!❤

Food has an important place in Iranian culture. We prepare special dishes and set the table for all ceremonies, whether happy or sad. Zereshk polo is not a common food at mourning ceremonies, but it was probably the poor boy's favorite food. I hope he rest in peace and you can come to Iran and taste the home-made taste of this food again.

Thank you. They have this special rice cooker that Persians use. You can choose which color of tahdig you want. In general, I prefer to use pan in traditional way, I even gave away my rice cooker😅. The paprika poeder can be up to 2 teaspoons, it can't go wrong but the cinnamon, it needs to be just this measurement, or a bit less unless it's more meat ofcourse you add more

Yummylicious but thet rice can be sour and tart snd sweet like Albaloo Polo the Cherry rice. Btw, have you ever prepared shirin polo Orange 🍊, almond, pistachio rice for specisl family occasion and Addas polo for other occasions b4??? My persian friend says that its recommended to be eaten with chicken dishes usually, but NOT with Ghormeh sabzi or koresh the persian stews or so... Quick questions: Are preparations for making perfect Gormeh sabzi so intense like some other persian stews??? Do you think any sweet sour persian rice I mentioned pairs well with beef soltani instead of 🐔 ???? Btw, persian cusines are so unique and interesting flavor at the same time...

Жыл бұрын

I'm sorry for the late response. I haven't tried rice with oranges because this kind of rice, wouldn't be eaten by my husband and 2 children. I love addas polo with meatballs and ghormeh sabzi ( my first favorite Persian food) is better to eat with white rice, same as kebab soltani and kebab koobideh. I think joojeh kebab can be eaten with zereskt polo, albaloo polo and jewel rice
