This is a Pashtun dish originating from the North West Frontier between Afghanistan and Pakistan. Its popularity spread into the cities of Pakistan and then to certain families in Dhaka in Bangladesh who would serve it on special occassions. This version is from ” Ammu” by Asma Khan
A quick and bright tasting supper from ” Tender:Volume 1″ by Nigel Slater. You need to be brave when cooking the meat- fry till it glistens and is almost crisp before you add the remaining ingredients. I like to use purple sprouting broccoli but any fresh broccoli will do nicely.
A recipe from Sally Butcher which i found in ” Soup for Syria”. If you ever find yourself visiting Peckham in south London then Sally has a little shop and vegetarian cafe which i highly recommend visiting.
Golden rice flavoured with a little meat, spices and a hint of sweetness which is nice served with a spoonful or so of yoghurt on top and perhaps some mango chutney. It’s another recipe from ” Organic” by Sophie Grigson and William Black.
