Nowruz is on 21 March. It’s time to get cooking!
Sabzi polo ba mahi
This is the daddy of all Nowruz foods. It's traditionally served for lunch on New Year's Day and consists of rice with green herbs, served with fish (usually sea bass or tilapia). The herbs represent rebirth, the fish represents life, and eating a plate of this is said to bring good luck. Find a recipe here.
Kookoo sabzi
This is a delicious, deep-green omelette made with whipped eggs and herbs. It can be served hot or cold and is often brought to a Sizdeh Bedar picnic on the 13th, and last, days of the Nowruz celebrations. Find a recipe here.
Asheh reshteh
A hearty soup made from thick noodles, known as reshteh, and a dairy product called kashk which is similar to whey, as well as herbs and beans. It’s a healthy and restorative meal, which symbolises good fortune and success for the year ahead. Find a recipe here.
Fesenjan
A thick stew made with pomegranate syrup and ground walnuts, this Persian staple is usually served with either yellow or white rice. Traditionally, it's made with chicken, as in this recipe, but lamb, fish and vegetarian variations are popular too.
