About Our Ghormeh Sabzi

Ghormeh Sabzi is widely considered the national dish of Persian cuisine and holds an equally important place in Afghan cooking. This herb-based stew has been prepared in homes across Iran and Afghanistan for hundreds of years, with recipes passed down through generations. The dish gets its distinctive deep green colour and complex flavour from the slow cooking of fresh herbs.

At Kabul Restaurant, our Ghormeh Sabzi is prepared using traditional methods. We start by finely chopping and sautéing a generous mix of fresh parsley, cilantro, chives, and fenugreek leaves until fragrant. Tender pieces of meat are browned and then slow-cooked with the herb mixture, red kidney beans, and dried limes (limoo amani) that add a distinctive tangy depth. The stew simmers for hours until all the flavours meld together into a rich, aromatic masterpiece.
