About Ashak
Ashak is a traditional Afghan dish featuring dumplings filled with a mixture of leek or scallion and spices, often topped with a flavorful meat sauce and garlicky yogurt. Packed with cultural significance, it’s commonly enjoyed as a family or celebratory meal. The filling provides a boost of vitamins and minerals from leeks or scallions, while the yogurt adds probiotics and protein. However, the inclusion of fried dumpling wrappers, rich meat sauces, and potential added oils can make Ashak higher in calories and fat. It’s a delicious dish that balances hearty and fresh flavors, representing Afghan cuisine’s rich culinary heritage. Eating Ashak in moderation or substituting lighter ingredients can help make it a healthier option.
