Albanian White Bean Soup (Jani Me Fasule)

A rich delicious soup. Good as a part of suhoor or futoor (iftar) the meals before sunrise and fajr prayer and after sunset & maghreb prayer during the month of Ramadan. Here is what the original poster had to say, “This is not only the most popular dish in Greece but Albania as well. The two countries share many recipes. The Greek dish however uses olive oil and mint instead of butter and paprika. This is a hearty, flavorful thick soup, perfect with a light meal or cold night.” Modified from a recipe found on http://www.yasalamcooking.com.

Afghan Cilantro Chutney

Usually cilantro chutney in Afghanistan restaurants in the US do not contain mint, and have a stronger vinegar flavor. If that is what you are looking for, adjust the recipe accordingly. This is a slightly different version that I came up with.

Salaata (Afghan Salad)

A popular salad in Afghanistan, it’s made up of tomatoes, onion, cucumbers, radishes, lemon, cilantro and salt. I like to add just a little drizzle of honey in the dressing.From Afghan cooking.

Sheer Yakh (Afghan Ice Cream)

A popular Afghan dessert. No two Afghans prepare the same dish exactly the same. Creativity is another element that contributes to the wonderful medley of flavors that make up Afghan cooking. From afghanweb. To make this vegan, you can use non dairy ice cream.
