Instructions

  1. An easy-to-prepare Iranian main course that can also be used as a starter!
  2. Clean the leek (there are still 300 - 350 g), cut in half lengthways and cut into 1/2 cm thick slices. Do not chop walnuts too finely. Whisk both with the eggs, season with salt, pepper and adwie and fry in a pan in hot oil like a thick pancake, turn once.
  3. You`d swear this dish contains ground beef, but it`s entirely vegetarian!

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
