HI friends, a while back I made a short video asking if you wanted to see the long video of this amazing fusion dish, and I got many requests saying YES!
So today we make an amazing fusion recipe mixing Italian Cuisine with Persian Cuisine to make Ossobuco with Baghali Polo (Persian Dill Rice).
This is a long, relaxing video where we go step by step in making both dishes, and even Risotto, so its a bit longer than my other videos.
This dish pairs fantastic together and I hope you make it. I will be updating the full ingredients list soon.
Thank you and please share with your friends, love you all, and bye now 🙂

Oh, my! I am 2nd (mom’s side) and 3rd (dad’s side) generation Italian American. Of course, I love Italian food, and Osso Bucco is one of my favorite dishes. However, my absolute favorite cuisine is Persian! Years ago I learned how to make a few Persian dishes. The first one I learned was Boghali Polo, which I obviously don’t know how to spell in English! Unfortunately, my husband & I retired to a rural area where there are no Persian restaurants. I liked the Boghali Polo and enjoyed making it. But, my husband does not care for Fava/Lima beans and as I’ve aged (I’m 75), I find the amount of dill in it difficult to digest. There are so many other Persian dishes I love, such as Gourmeh Sabsi and Khoresht Beh (it’s hard to find the quince). You did a beautiful job on both these recipes. Your Tahdik came out perfectly. I always liked mine made with lavash or, if I can’t find lavash, a flour tortilla works well. I’ve always said if someone ever figures out how to mass produce Tahdik, it will put the potato chip industry out of business! Thank you so much for these recipes. You are an excellent teacher!
Thank you for your work 🥰 When I cook with your videos, everyone loves the food so much that they ask for a recipe 😊🤗
That was beautifully done fusion of Italian and Iranian cuisine although I still need more practice I hope I can try to make this one day.
This will be our thanksgiving food as we don't eat pork and don't like turkey ❤
I looooove iranian food❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I make this dish all the time. I tried it with red wine vinegar(my leat fave), white cooking wine, red cooking wine, and worchester sauce lol(i was drunk) my fave is red cooking wine
Risoto is the most disgusting thing I have ever tasted. It is the opposite of Iranian taste. I cant believe you can eat it.
Chef (IMO you are exactly that) Yousef, I am surprised that you didn’t use this opportunity to make a variety of gremolata variations! I did a little research on the traditional parsley/lemon/garlic combination, so maybe in some future videos you might include examples of one or more of them. What additions they would make to any mezze or special occasion!
For herbs: parsley, cilantro, dill, mint, oregano, rosemary, sage, tarragon, watercress, za’atar
For citrus: lemon, orange, lime, grapefruit, pomegranate molasses, grape molasses, dried cranberries, raisins and other dried fruits, sumac, zereshk
For root vegetables: garlic, fennel, turnips/rutabaga, horseradish/radish, parsnips, parsley root
For nuts: hazelnuts, walnuts, almonds, pistachios, pine nuts
Or make relishes from these ingredients as well as whatever else is in that clever imagination of yours!
(I make baked potatoes and while they’re right out of the oven I cut them into chunks and add drained canned spinach, lots of butter and/or EVOO (mine is Palestinian), flaky sea salt, black pepper, caraway and celery seeds, and sumac. To be eaten with a big soup spoon.)
Love it. Bless you xxxx
Wow, that looks so delicious! I like the "low 'n slow" way of cooking meat, especially with vegetables, the end result is heavenly, all the flavours infuse nicely. That rice Rissotto comes from the Arabic word for rice "Ruz", from which we get the English 'Rice' and the Spanish "Arroza". Goes back to the days of Al- Hambra, Garnatha, Al-Andalus……🌻
