| Summary |
Food Safari enters the saffron-scented realm of Persian food - one of the most ancient cuisines on earth. We will discover the secrets to cooking tender kebabs, how the rosewater iced dessert faloodeh is made, and why the Persian rice dish zereshk polow is so adored. Maeve joins emporium owner Russoul Sajadi for a tour of the best rice, nuts, barberries and spices essential for Persian cuisine, then gets a lesson on kebabs from restaurateur Kamy Shapaury and his chef Malek Mehdi on how to thread the meat onto skewers and how to marinate and cook the kebabs. Along the way, she discovers the ancient slow-cooked dish called dizi, loved by manual labourers as a food that kept them going all day, but now popular with younger Persians in Australia.Chef Jason Aghamri introduces Maeve to the hearty Persian breakfast kaleh pache made with lambs' heads and hooves and shows her how to cook the classic dish flavoured with dried limes and green herbs called qormeh sabzi. Renowned home-cook Nadia Sajadi shares the secrets of perfect Persian rice, which she boils, then steams, then mixes with saffron, barberries and toasted nuts for the legendary zereshk polow - the rice dish of celebration. Like rice, Persian sweets are works of art and baker Babak Joneidy shows how chickpea flour, rice flour and spices can make sweet magic. Hot summers in Teheran led to the creation of a rosewater scented Persian slushie with frozen noodles called faloodeh - restaurateur Jalal Dastyari shows how it's made and eaten.
