Direcciones

  1. Afghans, like families in all remaining Jewish communities, serve their Sabbath day lunch abt midday on their return from synagogue. The food is baked very slowly from Friday evening before sundown till Saturday. Slow baking in a light oil bath creates potatoes & rice w/ crisp bottom crust. Aromatically seasoned w/cinnamon, raisin, and pepper, entire meal is cooked in one pan. As an alternate choice to meat, Large eggs in shell may be added to pan & baked, resulting in brown Large eggs w/a delicious roasted flavor.
  2. 1. Bring 5 c. of water w/1 tb salt to a boil in pan, add in meat, & cook over moderate heat for mins. Remove foam which rises during this time. Remove meat from liquid & set aside.
  3. 2. Add in rice to same liquid & cook over moderate heat for 5 mins.
  4. Drain rice through a colander, rinse under cool water, & set aside.
  5. 3.Put sliced potatoes on bottom of pan, arranged in orderly fashion.
  6. Spread over this half of rice & sprinkle w/pepper & cinnamon. Spread raisins in center of rice. Add in all meat over this & balance of rice over all. Pour in c. of warm water & dribble oil over surface & around edges of pan.
  7. 4.Cover pan & cook over low heat for 1/2 hr. Reduce heat to very low & cook, tightly covered, for 5 hours to produce crisp potatoes & rice.
  8. Serve hot.
  9. VARIATION: One hard-cooked egg for each person may be added to rice and meat pan. Cook Large eggs in water w/1/2 ts salt for 5 mins. Salt is added to prevent shell from breaking. Rinse Large eggs in cool water & place them on top of rice in pan after adding warm water & oil. Cover pan & cook as directed.
  10. NOTE: Rice is not a prohibited food & is eaten during Passover as well as rest of year. It is Basmati rice, found in Pakistan and Afghanistan, & is cleaned by hand three times to remove broken kernels, dirt & other impurities. This, in a general way, prepares rice for the holiday.
