About the dish

Zamarod pulao, translated to emerald pilaf , is a famous Afghan dish made with rice and spinach cooked in vegetable or beef stock, often enriched with lamb or beef. The spinach imparts its signature green color to the dish, so it is usually incorporated into the rice before the baking process begins. This flavorful pilaf dish is served on a variety of special occasions, weddings and family gatherings.
