Wonderful and easy bread – Afghan style. I fell in love with this at my favorite restaurant, Kabul, in Madison, WI. They have the most amazing bread ever. This is a good close approximation. Posting for my DD who also loves this one!
This is my take on the Afghan dish Bouranee Baunjan, and although it is not exactly authentic, it is quite delicious. 🙂 It’s a bit of work to put it together, but is not difficult and is worth it.
This recipe is from week five of my food blog, “Travel by Stove.” I am attempting to cook one meal from every country on Earth, and Algeria is my fifth stop. This flatbread is cooked in a pan and has a texture similar to cornbread.
This is a classic Algerian ‘salad’ dish. You can either grill the tomatoes & peppers over an open flame, deep fry them or roast them. My family loves this recipe & we always mop it up with fresh bread! You can also serve this as part of a mezze selection. The vinegar is of course optional but it acts as a flavour enhancer so I do recommend at least trying a little of the salad with a few drops of vinegar on!
Maria Luisa Scott and Jack Denton Scotts have traveled the world and collected its recipes in their many books. This is from “A World of Pasta”. Posted for ZWT3 – Northern Africa. The lentils must be soaked for 2 hours before cooking so plan ahead.
