Shaam-e-Iraani

My dear friend Minoo Alipour cooked this fine Iranian meal for my goodbye dinner in Dushanbe on Monday the 13. Clockwise from bottom right:

Ghormeh Sabzi – meat stewed in fresh herbs and lemon
Adas Polo – steamed rice with lentils
Kashk-e-Bademjaan – usually fried eggplants mashed with dried whey, in this case some yoghurt
Maast o Khiar – yoghurt and cucumber salad

Minoojaan! Dast-e-to dard nakone!
