Tahdig (Crispy Persian Rice)
This tahdig recipe features a deliciously crispy, golden rice crust that’s the perfect complement to the soft, fluffy rice beneath. Made with basmati rice, jasmine rice, saffron, and ghee, it’s a savoury, aromatic dish that’s a must-have on a dinner table where a kebab or hearty stew is present. The crispy rice is so addicting you may just find yourself fighting for that golden top layer.
