About this

Kabuli palaw is Afghanistan's national dish, featuring long-grain rice steamed with chunks of lamb or beef, carrots, raisins, and slivered almonds, often flavored with cardamom, cumin, and saffron. Typically prepared for celebrations and family gatherings, it layers browned onions and meat at the bottom of a large pot, with rice piled on top and slow-cooked to absorb the juices, resulting in a mildly sweet-savory profile served communally.
