![]() Iranian cuisine is one of the most diverse in the world and one of the most well liked cuisines by people of different cultures around the world. The yummiest kabobs that you can ever have in the whole Middle East are in Iran. Food portions are very reasonable, taste is great plus Iranians love rice as you can see in the pix but are also in shape still,which is good ![]() Persians eat their food with Spoon & Fork as chinese eat with chapsticks or in the west they use fork & knife. Plus it will take forever to finish a Persian meal by fork & knife because of the rice ![]() Pics are from Picasa, courtsey of Mohammad & Arashz and some from Google too ![]() I'm too lazy to name all these great yummy foods First the most popular Persian dish: Koobideh Kabob with Rice ![]() ![]() Barg Kabob ![]() Chicken Kabob ![]() ![]() Shami- Beef

There is a movement to change this lack of aesthetic beauty by foreign based Iranian chefs such as Najmieh Batmanglij. You can buy Ms. Batmanglij's book New Food of Life for more recipes and ideas. I think Iranian restaurants (outside and especially in Iran) need to learn how to present their food in a attractive manner as well. I've gone to Iranian restaurants in the UK, the USA and Canada with my non-Iranian friends and coworkers and their presentations were average at best. There was one exception, the Shiraz Restaurant in Singapore which had some of the most beautifully served dishes I've ever seen: ![]() Shiraz-style Salad (saladeh-Shirazi) | Yoghurt and spinach salad (borani-e esfenaj) ![]() Pomegranate and pistaschio meatball (kofteye-anaro-pesteh) | Herb Stew (Khoresh-e qormeh-sabzi) ![]() Okura and Tomato stew (Khoresh-e bamiye) | Dill and fava bean rice with lamb shank (baqala-polo) ![]() Shrimp Kebab (kababe-meigu) ![]() Mixed Kebab platter ![]() Persian Sweet Delights ![]() Saffron rice pudding (sholeh-zard) If in Singapore, be sure to visit the Shiraz Restaurant. They even have a really good wine selection (Syrah) for different meals.

It looks good to me, who cares if the presentation isn't perfect, it all goes down the same way!
![]() This might be a good thread to ask a question. I recently bought a packet of ground Sumac, a sort of purple, slightly sour berry which I believe is commonly used in Iranian cuisine. I was wondering if anybody had some suggestions of recipes using it. I've tried it as a rub on some sea bass which I grilled and it tasted good but if anybody has some authentic Iranian recipes that would be great. Thanks
