The spices used in Persian cooking are quite subtle to enhance the flavours of the other ingredients rather than overpower. This fragrant Persian stew, or Khoresht, is flavoured with cinnamon, cumin, saffron and dried black lime. We’re serving it with a delicious mint and garlic butter-coated yogurt along with sabzi polow - sabzi means ‘green’ in Persian, which in this instance refers to the dried herbs in this lovely aromatic rice dish.

Remaking a favourite!
Another delicious Spicery easy kit! The rice in particular was lovely.
This is a favourite at Spicery HQ too, so glad you enjoyed it!
Very tasty, great for a cold winters day.
wowww the mint and garlic butter-coated yogurt looks seriously creamy and delicious! We love the beautiful patterned crockery too- delightful!
Excellent flavours! We tried the vegetarian version with aubergines and found it sensational and really easy to prepare. Very recommended.
Great use of the humble aubergine! Happy spicing!
I got brought a subscription for my birthday. Me and my boyfriend absolutely loved making this dinner and enjoyed it very much. Super delicious and fun !
That's great! Happy spicing!
At last a wonderful mild dish with no screaming heat. We loved it. Could we have more MILD dishes please
That's great! Happy spicing!
The Burnt Mint Raita didn't add a lot but the aubergines were fantastic in this delicate meal. We added a kachumber Salad and that was a joy too. An absolute delight for a Friday Night. Thank You.
Yum - looks great!
This came in our Family Favourites bundle. It is hard to believe such amazing flavours came from a very easy kit to make! Everyone loved it, and the flavours stay with you long after the meal is done, leaving you wanting more. We will definitely be ordering more of these once they're back in stock. We used chicken this time, but we want to try it with aubergine.
Amazing, glad everyone really enjoyed this! Let us know how you get on using aubergine- happy spicing!
A really tasty recipe, I've never tried Persian cuisine before. I used lamb mince instead of chunks of lamb, and made meatballs, which worked really well with the dish. Plus I added in some aubergine for good measure. Delicious!! Thank you Spicery!
YUM this looks fantastic- great shout adding in the aubergine too!
Interesting flavours and we enjoyed it. The sauce didn’t really thicken for me and unfortunately we’re really struggling to get lamb. I am sure it would’ve been much better with the right meat! Still a tasty dinner and it was nice to try something different :o)
Glad you enjoyed this, everything looks great to us! Happy spicing!
My daughter bought me the family pack as a Christmas present because she knows I love cooking and traveling and I loved them, I'm now going to buy the adventure kits.
When you love to travel but can't go anywhere right now, we hope this dish transported you to Persia - at least just for a little while! We can't wait to see what you make with you adventurous kits!
This was simply stunning. I did the lamb version and can’t wait to try it veggie style next. The yoghurty part was outstanding - my wife was drinking it straight from the bowl. Try it now!
Yum - great job, Andrew! We're so pleased to hear how much you enjoyed this elegant Persian stew. Happy spicing!
This one was just delicious and made the kitchen smell amazing!
Thanks for your lovely review, Rose - we're so pleased to hear how much you loved both the flavour and fragrance of this subtly spiced Persian dish!
We often cook Persian recipes from scrstch - this kit achieves a lovely authentic-tasting meal - we couldnt decide between lamb or aubergine, so had both - and was delicious.
Why choose one when you can have both? We're so pleased to hear how much you enjoyed this fragrant Persian stew!
RE-ordered this dish as we enjoyed it so much last time
Excellent service
I love The Spidery. Their spices are very high quality and as fresh as can be. Their spice kits are a weekly treat for us; always something new and interesting and always easy to follow.
Truly excellent service - great choice and super prompt delivery
Brilliant online service. Good delivery. Excellent instructions
Quick delivery of excellent products
Great value for money, free delivery, amazing meals
Great info on website, kept updated on progress of order. Love the Spicery
Clear website, good descriptions of items, prompt service
Took this on holiday with us to Norfolk, it made a really special meal. I think the Spicery should include rice spices in their spice products.
Quick delivery. Easy to follow recipe. Awesome taste
Order, purchased as a gift, arrived really quickly. Bought add a gift as I absolutely live the simplicity and taste of the recipes!
First class service as always.
Delivered efficiently
Good for vegetarians. Nice to try a different cuisine.
Excellent service as my choice of purchase was accepted, acknowledged and I was updated as to when it was despatched and when it would arrive. I am a previous Spicery customer so I knew the quality would be good. We had our first curry tonight from the ba
The website is easy to use and delivery was fast. What more could you ask for!
Easy to make contact and rectify my mistake with address. Spice packets look great, neat packaging that is practical- they'll stand up tidily in the cupboard. So pleased I found them, will be back!!
Every time I order from them it is there within a couple of days. If you need to contact them for any reason there is a real human being who is really helpful. It's a 10 out of 10 service
I'm now a complete convert and regularly order. The recipes are so easy, you just need half a dozen ingredients that I usually have anyway and they take about 20 mins to prepare. So easy and tasty. Highly recommend!
