Koobideh Kabob

Ground lamb-and-beef skewer seasoned with grated onion and turmeric, grilled over char until the exterior caramelizes while the interior stays just yielding — served over a mound of saffron-stained rice

Joojeh Kabob

Saffron-and-lemon marinated chicken skewers that stay moist under the grill's heat, arriving with a lightly charred skin and bright citrus finish

Ghormeh Sabzi

Slow-cooked herb, kidney bean, and dried lime stew with the deep olive-green intensity of a recipe that hasn't been streamlined — pairs with chelow for a canonical Persian comfort meal

Fesenjan

Pomegranate-walnut stew with a dark, earthy sweetness and pleasant tartness — the kind of dish that rewards diners willing to venture past the kabobs

Chelow with Tahdig

Basmati rice steamed to order with the prized crispy-bottom crust — the quality marker that separates serious Persian kitchens from shortcuts

Doogh

Chilled Persian yogurt drink, lightly salted and herb-infused — cuts the richness of the stews and is the correct pairing here
