Directions
Afghan Spinach Appetizer Dip, This recipe came from an Afghanistan cookbook, that I think came out in the 1990’s (from Minnesota) I don’t remember the title, but their recipes were very good , This is a really good recipe, thanks! And everyone I served it to at a dinner party loved it I substituted olive oil, and also farmer’s cheese rather than yogurt I strongly recommend the farmer’s cheese (i e , homemade cottage cheese type thing) – yogurt would have been way, way, way too runny Farmers cheese gave it the perfect texture, and reminded me very much of a dish I ate regularly in villages once upon a time when hiking Pakistan’s Himalayan and Hindu Kush mountains My other major comment/correction on this is that bunch of spinach is way too vague – it was totally unclear to me how much spinach I needed I chopped all the onions, and then after preparing what I thought was a generous quantity of spinach, I still had more onions than cooked spinach! used a lot less onions and sort of eyeballed all the ingredients after that Like I said, it turned out great but be prepared to improvise on the proportions , This recipe came from an Afghanistan cookbook, that I think came out in the 1990’s (from Minnesota) I don’t remember the title, but their recipes were very good
