Persian Cucumber Yogurt (Maast-o Khiar)
This cool and healthy dip can be served along side rice and meat, or simply with bread. No Persian meal is complete without Maast-o khiar! This dish is best if refrigerated for a few hours, but if you are strapped for time feel free to serve after mixing. Don't be afraid to get creative! Try adding spinach, raisins, or walnuts. Other herbs could be used as well (i.e. mint, tarragon, oregano). More cucumbers, less shallots...it's your call! Enjoy!
Greek Feta and Spinach Potato Casserole
If you like potato gratins and casseroles, try this unique Greek-inspired recipe. The herbaceous flavor of mint and spinach pairs well with the rich flavor of baked feta cheese.
Enchilada Sauce with Chocolate
Onion and garlic are sautéed with cumin, cinnamon, and chili powder, then simmered with chicken broth. Blending in semisweet chocolate is the key to creating this authentic taste of Mexico. This is a great enchilada sauce without tomato sauce.
