Green Bean Soufflé (Persian Kuku Lubia Sabz)
Recipe? Easy! Follow the recipe for the above Green Bean and Rice dish for the bean preparation, then stir the bean mixture into eggs or substitute and pour the mixture into your hot oiled skillet. Cook on medium heat until the bottom has begun to brown, score the skillet into 8 pie-shaped pieces, and flip them over to brown on the bottom. To make it truly “Persian” you should also brown the cut edges, and that is it! A quick lunch or dinner, and so very delicious!

Eggplant Dip (Persian Kask e’ Badamjan)
Eggplant Dip (Kask e’ Badamjan) is a favorite for family dinners as well as fancy feasts. And it can be pretty simple to prepare, although the recipe may seem daunting when you first read it. The best part is that each cook leaves her/his own stamp on the recipe and makes it their own by being very creative, diligent at sautéing, or just understanding how spices marry and intermingle with the oil, carnalized onions, and roasted eggplant to create a spectacular side dish or appetizer. Try your hand and find a wonderful new dish to show off at your next event!
