Discover the Persian cuisine in your local area

Persian cuisine beautifully marries both the modern and ancient cooking styles found in modern-day Iran. Here dishes have maintained their character for thousands of years, and have incorporated the best recipes that have passed through this centrally located region. Classically, fruits were often dried as a means of preservation, and their modern use persists as a tradition. Prunes, dried apricots, raisins, dates and figs are all classic Persian fare. Vegetables such as pumpkins, spinach, beans and squashes all accompany rice and meat dishes.

The number of Persian dishes and appetisers is incredible. Regular attendance to Persian restaurants is necessary for your tongue to learn them all, but one visit is enough to satisfy your stomach.

Popular dishes

Iranian Lamb Skewers

One of the tastiest (and healthiest) dishes in Persian Cuisine is Iranian Lamb Skewers (aka Shish Kebab). Cubes of lamb are marinated in garlic, lime juice and saffron, threaded onto skewers, grilled on the barbecue, then served with grilled tomatoes. The term ‘shish’ is actually a Turkish word for ‘skewered meat’ and originated from medieval soldiers using their swords as skewers to cook meat over campfires. (No swords at Menulog – just a rapier-like delivery.) Joojeh Kabob (Persian Saffron Chicken Kebab) is another classic chicken recipe from Iran. Young, Organic Chicken Pieces are liberally smothered in a delicious Saffron & Lemon Marinade which imparts a fulsome flavour when grilled. (Now, do we have to grill you about the benefits of downloading the Menulog app? Hope not.)

Kabob Sultani

A Kabob Sultani (aka ‘for a Sultan’) is two separate skewers of red meat; one Kabob Koobideh (aka Lamb) AND one Kabob Barg (aka Beef Filet Mignon). So called, because the Sultan’s ‘Royal status’ makes him deserving of two types of meat. A Chicken Kabob Sultani is the same principle, but with a skewer of Chicken Koobideh which uses ground chicken (and) a Chicken Barg which serves a boneless fillet of lean chicken meat. Both are often served with multiple types of Rice, or with Lavash (aka Unleavened Flatbread) popular across Iran, Armenia and Turkey. This bread makes a delicious alternative to wraps or Naan, and is cooked in a traditional cylindrical clay Tandoor Oven (and delivered on a contemporary green Menulog delivery bike).
