Ghormeh Sabzi

Ghormeh Sabzi (The “National Dish”)

Discover the heart of authentic Persian cuisine with Chef Javad’s Ghormeh Sabzi. Revered as the uncrowned national dish of Iran, this iconic stew is a masterpiece of slow-cooked flavour, served at one of London’s best Persian restaurants.

This deeply aromatic stew is crafted from a medley of fresh and finely chopped herbs (the sabzi), which are slow-cooked for hours to create a rich, dark base. We then simmer diced tender lamb until it melts in your mouth, along with earthy kidney beans.

The stew’s unique and complex tangy flavour comes from the addition of sun-dried lime (Limoo Omani), a classic Persian ingredient. This unforgettable dish is served with fluffy saffron rice, making it the ultimate Persian comfort food and a true taste of home.
