Outstandingly Delicious Results!
I absolutely love this cookbook!

I was introduced to the Amiris' cooking in their Sacramento area restaurant, Bamiyan. When I saw that they had their own cookbook, I was hesitant to buy it, thinking that the results of the recipes in a book would pale in comparison with the restaurant's extraordinary fare. I was wrong! The secrets found on the pages of this book rendered results similar to those of a professional chef.

One of the most extraordinary things about this book is its simplicity. The ingredients, the cooking techniques, and the instructions are extremely straight-forward. The ingredients are easy to find and are available year-round. Most dishes rely heavily on fresh vegetables, chicken, fish, beef, or lamb, basmati rice, and simple spicing-- make sure you have Corriander and Cardamom on hand!

In one evening, over the span of about two and a half hours, I managed to prepare a rice dish, four vegetable accompaniments and Fernee, my favorite dessert, comprised of milk, corn starch, sugar, cardamom and pistacio. Simple and delicious!

To unlock your inner Afghan Chef, purchase this book! You won't be disappointed.

Classic Afghan Cookbook
Along with my wife we tried many Afghan books but we found this book to be easy to follow with extensive recipes from soup to desert. What I liked in particular about this book is the author uses different region's recipes which make this book quite extensive. If you would like to surprise yourself or guests with good food that are not well known around the world, this book is for you.

A great Afghan cookbook!
This is a wonderful cookbook on Afghan cooking! I've already made a receipe that my husband loved!
