Persian Chicken with Walnuts and Pomegranate (Fesenjan)
Ancient dish...Still popular around the World!
Ingredients:
2 tbsp oil/ghee
1 onion, chopped
1 large garlic clove, crushed
800 g Chicken meat, bite size (or 1 kg with bones in)
1,5-2 cups walnuts, ground
3/4 cup pomegranate molasses (or 1,5 cups pomegranate juice)
2 bay leaves
pinch of cinnamon, turmeric and nutmeg
Water (if necessary)
Salt and pepper to taste
5-8 (dried) rose petals (optional, but recommended - has to be fragrant-one)
Method:
Fry onions in oil, add chicken and other spices - brown well. Add walnut meal, stir-fry for 2-3 minutes. Pour molasses (if using juice , you need to reduce it first - cook until 1/3 evaporates). Cook for 45 min, or until satisfied with thickness/texture. Adjust taste with salt and pepper. Serve with rice.
Iranska piletina sa orasima i sokom nara/sipka
Neobicna kombinacija koja potice iz stare Perzije.
Potrebno:
2 kasike ulja/masla
1 crveni luk, sjeckan
1 vece ceno bijelog luka, protisnutog
800 gr pileceg mesa, rezanog na kocke (ili 1kg sa kostima)
1,5-2 solje mljevenih oraha
3/4 solje sirupa od nara ili ukuhanog soka nara (* vidi objasnjenje)
2 lovorova lista
malo cimeta, turmerika i muskatnog oraha u prahu
malo vode, ako je potrebno
So i biber po ukusu
5-8 latica (susene) ruze (opciono, ali preporucujem -mora biti mirisna ruza)
Nacin:
Proprzite luk na masnoci, pa dodajte meso. Przite dok ne dobije boju, zatim dodajte orahe. Mijesajte i kuhajte nekoliko minuta, zatim uspite gusti sok nara. Kuhajte 45 min, ili dok ne budete zadovoljni sa gustinom. Dotjerajte ukus sa solju i biberom. Servirajte sa rizom.
* Obicni sok nara (1,5 solja) mozete kuhati dok 1/3 ne ispari.
