Afghan Cooks

If you want to know about Afghan food and culture, you've come to the right place. I'm Mirriam, and I came to America with my family in the early 1970's. I grew up eating Afghan food and always took it for granted until I had a home and family of my own and mom wasn't around to make all the dishes that I loved growing up.

So, I learned to make this food myself. I took lessons from my mother, grandmothers, aunts, cousins and from the very few books that are available on our cuisine.

Afghanistan is more than just war. It is beautiful and vibrant with a culture as old as the mountains its villages inhabit.

I want to share the food and stories of my Afghanistan with you.

    Is it also afghani traditional to do the same recipe with black tea? Or is it not common?

    It looks yummy. I tried pineapple upside down cakes but not apple one, so I will try your recipe. Do you serve it with SheerChai? The two cups on the sides look like SheerChai.

    If you can spare a lemon 🍋, halve it, then rub one half on the surface of your cutting board before chopping onions. It should spare your tears!😂

    Finally, another human being who also isn’t crazy about the flavor of coconut water!😂 It’s a shame because it really does look pretty cool to sip from a straw inserted into a coconut.🥥

    So you used 1 cup of water and a splash later on for 2.5 cups of rice?? Isnt it reccomended to use 1 to 1 ratio of water and rice? I tried uzbek plov last week in an instant pot and it turned out bad. The rice became all mushy and tiny. I cooked it for 35 mins in the rice setting on high... i should do 12 next time like you
