About Kookoo sabzi

Kookoo Sabzi is a traditional Persian herb frittata brimming with flavor and nutrients. Originating from Iran, this dish is a staple during Persian New Year celebrations, symbolizing renewal and growth. Its vibrant green hue comes from an abundance of fresh herbs like parsley, cilantro, dill, and chives, combined with eggs to bind the mixture. Some versions include walnuts and barberries for added texture and tartness. Packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber, the herbs provide notable health benefits, such as supporting digestion and reducing inflammation. Eggs contribute essential protein and healthy fats, making this dish both nutrient-rich and satisfying. Typically pan-fried in oil, Kookoo Sabzi may be high in calories if excessive oil is used, but lighter preparation methods can reduce this concern. Enjoyed on its own or as part of a larger meal, Kookoo Sabzi offers a deliciously wholesome taste of Persian cuisine.
