BORANI-YEH KARAFS (CELERY YOGURT DIP)
Borani is an Iranian yogurt-based dish that highlights one ingredient, typically a vegetable. This one combines crisp celery with Greek yogurt for a cooling snack. Dried mint and dried dill are Iranian pantry staples and are always ready to be used in an array of dishes. Don't think of them as substitutes for fresh herbs but as stars in their own right. You can use fresh dill, if you prefer, but the dried mint here delivers a unique flavor and fragrance not found in its fresh counterpart. The dried cranberries add texture and color, and balance the celery with a hint of sweetness. Serve this dish as a dip or dig right in with a spoon.

Steps:
- Coarsely chop the hazelnuts, set a few pieces aside for garnish and place the rest in a medium bowl.
- Add the yogurt, celery, green onion, dried cranberries, lemon juice, mint, dill and salt to the bowl and mix well. Taste and adjust all seasonings to your liking. The dip can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- To serve, garnish with reserved hazelnuts, cranberries and a little sprinkling of dried mint and dill. Drizzle with olive oil and serve with chips, flatbreads or crudités.
BORANI-YEH ESFENAJ (SPINACH YOGURT DIP)
There are many types of Iranian borani, or yogurt-based dishes, and spinach borani is a classic. What sets borani-yeh esfenaj apart from a simple mix of wilted spinach and yogurt is that the spinach is first cooked down with flavorful golden onions, garlic and turmeric. The preparation of the onion is the backbone of the dish and not to be overlooked. Rather than cooking the onion low and slow, as is done when caramelizing, it's cooked quickly over a higher heat to draw out its sweet and sharp flavors. Creamy Greek yogurt is mixed with thinner regular yogurt for a balanced consistency. Use more or less of either depending on your preference: You can serve the borani thicker as a dip with pita crackers or flat breads, or thinner as a light lunch or snack alongside rice.

Steps:
- In a large (12-inch) pan, heat the oil over medium-high. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the garlic, sprinkle with a little salt, stir and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the turmeric, stir and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add about half the spinach and increase the heat to medium. Using tongs, quickly and continuously toss the spinach with the onion mixture until slightly wilted and reduced in volume. Add the rest of the spinach, ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Toss and cook until the spinach is wilted and any liquid has evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes. Increase the heat slightly if the spinach releases too much water. Transfer the spinach mixture to a bowl and cool to room temperature.
- To the cooled spinach, add the Greek yogurt, regular plain yogurt, lemon zest and lemon juice. Stir well to combine, and add salt to taste. If the mixture is too thick, thin out with more regular yogurt, 1 tablespoon at a time. Taste and add more salt and lemon juice as needed. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours. Stir to combine, then drizzle with olive oil and serve.
VEGAN ONION DIP
For the creamiest, dreamiest vegan onion dip, use a high-speed blender, if you have one. There is some down time in this recipe - soaking the cashews and letting the dip rest - but don't be tempted to skip those steps. The cashews need to soak so they blend as smoothly as possible, and the finished dip benefits greatly from some time to let the flavors come together. Prepare it a day in advance and refrigerate overnight for best results.

Steps:
- Add the cashews to a bowl and cover with water. Let the cashews soak at room temperature for 2 hours.
- About 45 minutes before the cashews are finished soaking, combine the chopped onions, olive oil and a pinch of salt in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until they are deep golden brown and caramelized, about 30 minutes. To prevent the onions from burning and sticking to the bottom of the skillet, you can add a splash of water, 1 tablespoon at a time, as needed. Let caramelized onions cool slightly.
- Drain the cashews and add them to the bowl of a food processor or high-speed blender with the beans and 1/2 cup water. Blend the mixture until smooth, about 5 minutes, stopping the mixer and scraping down the bowl occasionally.
- Add the lemon juice, vinegar, onion powder, paprika and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and blend again until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Reserve about 1 tablespoon onions for garnish, then add the rest to the bowl. Fold the onions into the mixture, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to overnight. (Overnight is ideal for the best flavor.)
- Just before serving, give the dip a good stir and adjust the seasoning with lemon juice and salt as desired. Top with the reserved onions and chives, if desired, and a few grinds of black pepper. Serve with potato chips or crudités. Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.

- Preheat the oven to 425°F with the rack set in the upper-third position. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, toss the zucchini with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Spread out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. (Use two sheets, if necessary, so the squash doesn’t steam.) Roast until softened but not completely cooked through (the squash will finish cooking in the sauce), about 15 minutes. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a large pan, heat the remaining ¼ cup oil over medium-high heat, until the oil is hot but not smoking. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and keep cooking, stirring often, until fried and crispy in bits and pieces, about 5 minutes. If the pan gets too dry, drizzle in more oil. Play with the heat if need be. You don’t want the onion to burn but you don’t want it soft and mushy either. Set aside a heaping tablespoon of the fried onion on a paper towel to use as garnish when serving.
