Kabuli, also known as Kabuli Pulao, is a fragrant and flavorful rice dish originating from Afghanistan. A staple of Afghan cuisine, it features long-grain basmati rice cooked with tender pieces of lamb or chicken, sweet carrots, raisins, and a blend of warming spices like cardamom, cumin, and cinnamon. Often garnished with almonds or pistachios for added crunch, Kabuli strikes a perfect balance between savory and sweet flavors. Nutritionally, Kabuli provides a mixture of protein from the meat, carbohydrates from the rice, and beneficial vitamins and antioxidants from the dried fruits and nuts. The use of spices enhances its health-promoting properties, as many, like cinnamon and cardamom, have anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits. However, the dish can be calorie-dense due to oil or butter used in preparation. Moderation and portion control can allow you to enjoy its rich flavors while maintaining a balanced diet.
