Afghanistan Kebabeh Sikhi has been on the recipe bucket list for a while now – and the current climate seems the ideal time to ensure we stay engaged and kind to the amazing people from this country that call Australia home.
Adelaide is blessed to have a significant population of Afghans and this means we eat a lot of their beautiful cuisine. It also means the bar is set high when it comes matching what they serve. This recipe is inspired by Parwana restaurant in Adelaide.
Served with our SkinnyBarbecue Freekeh Good Salad and simple three veg salad it is a nutrient dense and incredibly healthy dish. We are thinking of trying this with lamb and goat next so stand by!
