I’m super grateful, these dishes were my childhood and I’ve missed them since I left my pops. I’m going to start cooking for my wife and show her how amazing Persian dishes are.

Mine 2. Im from Bham Al and my stepdad was from Tehran. I love Persian food. Im curious why there isnt alot of restaurants in the U.S. Thanks for the video. My stepdad passed in 2008 so I cant ask him about his recipes. Some things he made was this and the zucchini/eggplant stew and masquia cucumber yogurt with kabobs.

I just cooked this for my wife and it was so delicious. Thank you so much for your videos! I feel so much more confident cooking persian food and you are very clear with your instructions. I added some munched garlic to my chicken while it was cooking and it really brought out the flavor even more. I hope you have a wonderful day and that God blesses you and your family. Thank you

Salam ati Yousef-joon! I love when your new videos show up on my homepage! This was a great recipe. You'll have to upload your wife's version of her zereshk polo to see whose is better :) Have you ever tried adding a splash of rosewater to the tomato paste as you heat it up in the pan with the onions? It adds a beautiful subtle flavour that really complements the dish! Love it! Keep up the great work!

When frying chicken, if you added saffron to it at the same time, it would get a better color and you could add onion in the same pan in which the chicken was fried and fry it again, but paste separately with a little lemon zest and saffron. And roasted butter tastes better, and in the end you had to add everything to cook with chicken thighs.

Thanks so much for this recipe, I can’t wait to try it out! Q: what temperature do you heat the pan at ~18:18? You say to drop the temp to medium low after 8 mins. Not sure if it’s steaming in the pan for 8 mins with/without heat. Thanks in advance.

Joonam Zereshk Polo! Been waiting for this recipe. I had a couple of questions: 1. When you're adding the salt to the boiling water, you put a lot of salt in there. Will that not make the rice too salty? 2. After you add the rice to the boiling water, do you keep the temperature at a high temp for the water to get to a boil again quickly, or do you bring the temp down? 3. When you add the 1/4 cup of water + 1/4 cup oil, what temperature did you heat that at before re-adding the rice? 4. Finally, before placing the kitchen cloth/towel on the lid to steam the rice on a low-medium heat, what temperature did you have the rice at to get it to start steaming? I do apologize for all the questions. But as always thank you for the video and hard work!

@CookingWithYousef 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Ali, you end up rinsing most of the salt out so you will see that it is not too salty at all. Yes, you keep it at high at that point to boil again.

@LilyCorowsky 2 ай бұрын

I am assuming it’s low to medium high heat to let it simmer until it cooks completely. If it’s high, it could boil too fast and won’t cook properly. I am not sure, but it’s just my thoughtful assumption.
