Why this site?!

For years, I have been searching for a book or website that would allow me to find traditional or new Afghan recipes to make at home but have been disappointed. In this blog, I will try to compile recipes from different sources, such as websites, online videos, books, newspapers, and the public so that my readers will have a common source to go to. WARNING! Afghans are generally very particular about how they cook certain dishes, and I understand that, however, I will try to show different ways to make the same recipe, if possible.

Diversity of Afghan Food

In my experience with Afghani food, I have come to realize that although most recipes are generally common through the various provinces, there are slight differences that give each recipe a different style and flavor. For instance, the very famous Kabuli Palou has so many variations, that tasting each region's version, you would think that you are eating a totally different dish.

So, what's my point?

Well, if you are Afghan and reading this, please don't be disappointed if your version of the recipe is not posted. Rather, I would appreciate it if you would add it to the comments below.


If you are not Afghan, then remember that once you learn the basics of a recipe, you can modify and change it to your liking.

So, I hope you have fun trying out a few new and old recipes from this blog. Please remember to share your thoughts and experiences with us.
