Ingredients:

- 1/3 cup walnuts
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup fresh chives (chopped)
- 1/2 cup scallion (chopped)
- 2 cups fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1/2 cup fresh coriander (chopped)
- 1/4 cup dried coriander
- 1/2 cup fresh dill weed (chopped)
- 1/4 cup dried dill weed
- 1/2 tsp fenugreek seeds
Instructions:
-
Preparation:
- Begin by soaking the red currants in cold water for about 15 minutes to soften them up. Once soaked, drain the water and set aside.
-
Mixing the Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add half of the cooking oil along with all other ingredients except for the fresh and dried vegetables.
- Using a fork, beat the mixture thoroughly until all the ingredients are well combined.
-
Adding the Vegetables:
- Now, add in the chopped fresh vegetables (chives, scallion, parsley, coriander, and dill weed) along with the dried coriander, dried dill weed, and fenugreek seeds.
- Gently stir the mixture until the vegetables are evenly distributed. Avoid overmixing to preserve the delicate nature of the fresh vegetables.
-
Preheat the Oven:
- Set your oven to bake at 250°F (120°C) to preheat while you prepare the dish.
-
Prepare the Baking Dish:
- Take an oven-safe dish and pour the remaining cooking oil into it, spreading it evenly across the surface.
-
Baking:
- Carefully pour the vegetable and egg mixture into the prepared baking dish, ensuring an even spread.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the mixture is set.
- To prevent over-drying of the top crust, you may cover the dish with aluminum foil at the beginning of the baking process. Remember to remove the foil halfway through.
-
Serving:
- Once baked to perfection, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Cut the Kookoo Sabzi into square pieces before serving, and enjoy the delightful flavors!
