Iran - Cucumber Yogurt Sauce with Raisins - Mast-o-Khiar
Delightful Persian sauce can be served
as a salad
with Herbed Rice.
2 cucumbers, peeled, thinly sliced
2 Tablespoons chopped green onion
1/2 cup raisins
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
2 cups plain yogurt
Salt and freshly ground white pepper to taste
1 Tablespoon crushed dried leaf mint
Combine cucumbers, green onion, raisins and walnuts in a medium bowl. Stir in yogurt, salt, pepper and mint. Refrigerate to chill thoroughly. Makes 4 cups.
HERBED RICE: - Sabzi Pollo
Here is a prized dish among the literally hundreds of Persian rice dishes.
About 4 cups lightly salted water
2 cups long grain rice
1 bunch green onions, green part only, chopped (about 1 cup)
1 bunch parsley, chopped (1 cup)
2 bunches cilantro, chopped (2 cups)
1/4 cup butter
Bring about 4 cups lightly salted water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add rice. Water should cover rice by about 1 inch. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat 10 minutes. Drain. Rinse rice with cold water. Drain again.
Combine chopped green onions, parsley and cilantro in a medium bowl. Mix well.
Melt butter in a large saucepan. Add a
fourth of the rice
. Sprinkle with a
third of the herbs.
Alternate layers of rice and herbs, ending with rice. Remove from heat. Place a clean cloth towel over saucepan. Place lid on towel. Bring corners of towel up and over top of lid. Fasten securely with a rubber band. Simmer over very low heat 25 to 30 minutes or until rice is soft and fluffy. Makes 6 servings.
