Thanks for posting this recipe! I enjoy eating Gormeh Sabzi and I appreciate the technique that keeps the greens from being overcooked.

I have been practicing Persian/Armenian cooking for the past 1 3/4 yrs, living with an Armenian Iranian. He generally likes what I do. He does not care for fenugreek, and while I love the stuff, I’ve been looking for a substitution for Gormeh Sabzi, which still enhances the flavor, so I can make it for him, too, and a substitute for dried limes, because they’re expensive in the U.S. (until I get my dehydrator…).

-I found that powdered horseradish root rounds out the parsley and turmeric in a rather delightful way, adding a bit of the same bite as the fenugreek seed.

-I also have added dried summer savory and oregano with pleasant results, as a substitute for the fenugreek leaves. For me, the taste of parsley gets rather strong when I use as much of the fresh herb as I like. The dried herbs balance that out nicely.

-I like to pickle diced lemon rind in a salt brine, any time I juice lemons, to serve as a tangy relish. I added about a tablespoon of the lemon rind and about 3/4 cup of the brine to a pot following the above proportions in your recipe.

I also have made this with kale, since I buy it more often than spinach and sometimes decide I want this dish on the spur of the moment (as I did, today) when figuring out what to do with soaked beans.

I hope this comment is helpful to other aspiring Persian cuisine aficionados.

Comment on Ghormeh Sabzi by Betsy Stevens, Coventry, RI, USA http://www.oldhallpersian.co.uk/recipes/ghormeh-sabzi/#comment-389 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 17:09:24 +0000 http://www.oldhallpersian.co.uk/?post_type=recipes&p=260#comment-389 Hello there,
As Spring (Norooz) is here I am always in the mood to make some of my husbands favorite recipes.
He LOVED Gormeh Sabzi, and I use a recipe from a cookbook he bought me when we were to be
married in 1988. I found the recipes wonderful and the stories in the book very educational, informative and especially heart warmingly funny. So in looking your recipe up, I notice you use spinach in the list of ingredients (yeay we love this in any soup/stew) and some dill (which was in the notes but not the list.) I have tried these additions and I must say, it was quite nice, a little different, but we are trying to get my daughters to like some more of his favorite (healthy) recipes, and this combination made it less intense (the limou is my item to ban because of tartness.)
So thank you for your posting of this recipe, my husband would whole heartedly approve!
Sincerely,
Betsy Stevens

have something to add to the discussion. Usually it’s caused by the sincerness displayed in the
post I looked at. And after this post Ghormeh Sabzi recipe from
Old Hall Persian Restaurant, Shropshire. I was moved enough to
post a comment 😉 I actually do have some questions for you if you tend not to mind.
Could it be just me or do some of these comments look as if they are
written by brain dead individuals? 😛 And, if you are writing on other online social sites, I’d like to follow
everything new you have to post. Could you list every one of your communal pages like your linkedin profile,
Facebook page or twitter feed?
