But actually the Ghormeh Sabzi I mentioned last week because people asked. Both meaty and vegan options below. Plus a way of making a decent tahdig in the pressure cooker
Another thought re herbs. Bee Wilson has an amazing recipe for a Persian style soup with herbs, and she suggests cooking the onions and herbs as step 1 in the InstantPot, and then adding beans etc and cooking in step 2. Now I understand why!
Interesting to read about sauteing the herbs being important. I suppose it deepens the flavour into a lower richer note (compared to the high notes of fresh coriander and parsley). And here's a good reason to follow the recipe as written - to learn something new :). I realised this when recipe testing a wonderful book called Istanbul and Beyond. Thanks for the reminder.
Quiet but appreciative paid subscriber here Catherine - please don't stop what you're doing, with the help of your books I use the pressure cooker to feed a family of four daily.
Love this! Reminds me of the seared tuna (crusted with fennel pollen) and creamy corona bean recipe I adapted from rustic Italian restaurant Il Buco for easy home cooking!

That makes a lot of sense!

Same - a quiet kitchen revolution in the way I cook and provide food for a family of 7. Thank you
7! Wow. And thank you too.
Thank you! I'm so glad my books are making life easier.
