Kuku Sabzi: The Savory Persian Egg Dish

Angus An of Maenam in Vancouver, BC is at home making Kuku sabzi, a Persian egg frittata that stole his heart after his first bite. This dish is packed with herbs like cilantro, parsley, dill, and fenugreek, which get blended into a batter with eggs. Next, Angus adds barberries and lemon zest for tart flavor before pouring the mixture into a 12-inch pan and cooking it in butter to start. When the edges turn golden brown, he moves the pan to the oven to finish baking. The result is a savory and substantial frittata with a crunchy crust that Angus tops with yogurt, Persian pistachios, and an herb salad.
