Me, Mommy, Mantu

Have fun making this delicious Afghan dish with your loved ones. Put on your aprons, let your fingers get messy, and stop to smell the gashneech. Don't forget to drizzle the chakkah all over and sprinkle the mint on top! Noshe jaan!

Afghan hospitality and Afghan food is at the heart of every Afghan gathering between families, friends, neighbors, and even strangers. Afghan food is inspired by a colorful array of rich spices and seasonings. There is nothing better than the scent of zeera (cumin), gashneech (coriander), na na (mint), ail (cardamom) drifting through the house.
