PERSIAN / IRANIAN GHALIEH ESFANAAJ



Persian / Iranian Ghalieh Esfanaaj image

This is a delicious Persian recipe for meatballs with lentils, split peas & black eyed beans. If you don't have Kashk you can use sour cream, also you can use sumac or a little tamarind paste / powder in place of the pomegranate powder or just leave it out. Preparation time doesn't include soaking time!

Provided by UmmBinat

Categories     Spinach

Time 30m

Yield 2 , 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 ounces Baby Spinach
1 medium clove garlic
1 tablespoon unrefined extra virgin olive oil, plus more to drizzle
2 cups balkan yogurt (thick type only please)
sea salt, to taste
1 teaspoon dried mint (only use dried please!)
1/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted (see recipe)

Steps:

  • Steam baby spinach until just wilted.
  • Drain well and chop fine.
  • Mince 1/2 medium clove garlic and saute in 1 tbs unrefined extra virgin olive oil, then add the chopped spinach and a pinch or two sea salt. Stir.
  • Remove from stove and allow to cool, then squeeze out excess liquid.
  • Toast chopped walnuts in a dry frying pan until fragrant. Be careful not to burn! Set aside to cool.
  • In a bowl and the yogurt, other half minced garlic, baby spinach, and dried mint and sea salt to taste, stir gently.
  • Transfer to the bowl you are serving it in (I use a shallow, round bowl) and sprinkle with toasted, chopped walnuts and a trail of unrefined extra virgin olive oil.
  • Serve with lavash (flatbread from Iran) or "some crisped-up-in-the-oven whole wheat pita bread!" (Yes we don't do that being gluten free! I use more yogurt and serve this as a salad to mix with Middle Eastern rice dishes.).
  • Enjoy!
