Persian Recipes and Tips for Foodies: Adasi

sarshar45 — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 23:02:12 +0000

hello to all of the persian food lovers!

i mentioned adasi on mondas blog and wanted to clarify and see if anyone else does anything interesting to their adasi.

of course, when you cook so much, amounts become a bit difficult to provide, but if you have any questions or comments please let me know. i will be glad to be of some help.

adasi is so delicious and nutritious, especially during the cooler months OR if you have a bunch of men who have been drinking :)

in my adasi i use:

adas... lentils, brown

onion

garlic

PLEASE create a recipe/food section!!!!

i would LOVE to see a recipe/food section of iranian.com. i think jj
had tried this maybe once before, but maybe it did not take off. i
would love to be able to come and find various recipes and techniques
and recommendations on how to cook, where to buy, what to use, and
where to eat.

is anyone else interested in seeing this? we all know how important persian food is in our daily lives.
