Khoresh Badejman (Eggplant and Tomato Stew) 4 Portions Khoresh Badejman (eggplant and tomato stew) 4 portions Ingredients • 750 g eggplant, cut into 2cm pieces) • 1/4 cup (60ml) plus 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil • 1 large yellow onion, finely sliced • 3 large cloves garlic finely chopped • 1 teaspoon dried cumin • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon • 1/2 teaspoon salt (sea or kosher, plus extra for salting the eggplant) • 1.5 tetrapaks of crushed tomatoes • 1/2 cup (125 ml) water • 1/4 cup pomegranate molasses • Optional: 1 pinch saffron Instructions 1. Place the eggplant in a large colander set over a bowl. Sprinkle with a generous pinch or two of salt and set aside. 2. In a large pot, warm the oil. Add the onions and saute until they are soft and translucent, and beginning to brown in spots, about 7 to 9 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, and salt, and saute until the onions are coated and the spices are aromatic, about 1 minute more. 3. Add the eggplant to the pan (if it has released a lot of liquid, pat it dry with paper towels or a clean tea towel first). Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Saute, turning to coat the eggplant in the onion and spice mixture, until the eggplant turns tender and shrinks in volume, about 8 to 10 minutes. 4. Stir in the tomatoes, add the water, pomegranate molasses and saffron (if using). Stir well. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to low, and cook covered for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve hot over persian rice. Top with the yogurt herb sauce and/or fresh chopped herbs, if desired. .

    Omid Roustaei | www.thecaspianchef.com | www.instagram.com/thecaspianchef About Persian Cuisine Persian cuisine is one of the world’s great gastronomies, flourishing for centuries across an area that, at the height of the ancient Persian Empire (circa 550 to 330 B.C.), included modern-day Iran, along with parts of Iraq, Macedonia, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Central Asia. The repertoire of dishes is fragrant, diverse, and highly refined, based on complex culinary techniques. They are imbued with fresh flowers and herbs like rose petals, fenugreek, and mint; spices like saffron, sumac, and cardamom; fruits like pomegranate and barberry; all kinds of citrus; and nuts, including pistachios and almonds. If this roster of ingredients sounds familiar, it’s because Persian cooking has influenced Middle Eastern, Moroccan, Northern Indian, and Turkish cuisines yet itself remains somewhat below the radar. Typical Iranian main dishes are combinations of rice with meat (such as lamb, chicken, or fish), vegetables, and nuts. Fresh green herbs are frequently used, along with fruits such as plums, pomegranates, quinces, prunes, apricots, and raisins. Characteristic Iranian flavorings such as saffron, dried limes, cinnamon, turmeric, and fresh herbs are mixed and used in various dishes. The agriculture of Iran produces many fruits and vegetables. Thus, a bowl of fresh fruit is common on Iranian tables, and vegetables are standard sides to most meals. These are not only enjoyed fresh and ripe as desserts but are also combined with meat and form accompaniments to main dishes. When fresh fruits are not available, a large variety of dried fruits such as dates, figs, apricots, and peaches are used instead.

  • Middle Eastern Cuisine
    MIDDLE EASTERN CUISINE The term Middle Eastern cuisine refers to the various cuisines of the Middle East. Despite their similarities, there are considerable differences in climate and culture, so that the term is not particularly useful. Commonly used ingredients include pitas, honey, sesame seeds, sumac, chickpeas, mint and parsley. The Middle Eastern cuisines include: Arab cuisine Armenian cuisine Cuisine of Azerbaijan Assyrian cuisine Cypriot cuisine Egyptian cuisine Israeli cuisine Iraqi cuisine Iranian (Persian) cuisine Lebanese cuisine Palestinian cuisine Somali cuisine Syrian cuisine Turkish cuisine Yemeni cuisine ARAB CUISINE Arab cuisine is defined as the various regional cuisines spanning the Arab World from Iraq to Morocco to Somalia to Yemen, and incorporating Levantine, Egyptian and others. It has also been influenced to a degree by the cuisines of Turkey, Pakistan, Iran, India, the Berbers and other cultures of the peoples of the region before the cultural Arabization brought by genealogical Arabians during the Arabian Muslim conquests. HISTORY Originally, the Arabs of the Arabian Peninsula relied heavily on a diet of dates, wheat, barley, rice and meat, with little variety, with a heavy emphasis on yogurt products, such as labneh (yoghurt without butterfat). As the indigenous Semitic people of the peninsula wandered, so did their tastes and favored ingredients. There is a strong emphasis on the following items in Arabian cuisine: 1. Meat: lamb and chicken are the most used, beef and camel are also used to a lesser degree, other poultry is used in some regions, and, in coastal areas, fish. Pork is not commonly eaten--for Muslim Arabs, it is both a cultural taboo as well as being prohibited under Islamic law; many Christian Arabs also avoid pork as they have never acquired a taste for it.
