Directions
Middle-Eastern Herb Omelette,This is from “Herbs and Spices the Cook’s Reference” by Jill Norman. This substantial omelette, something like a Spanish tortilla, is called a kookoo in Iran and eggah in the Arab countries. A tablespoon of barberries can be added to the filling. The omelette can be baked or cooked on top of the stove.,Delicious. used everything but the optional zucchini as I didn’t have any. I think I would prefer it without the walnuts and saffron so that is how I shall make it next time insha Allah. The only change I made was added some dried chives rather than fresh as they were all I had. I served it with Balkan (thick) yogurt which was surprisingly a very good accompaniment. Made for NA*ME Tag! Come play!!,This was very nice! I love all the veggies! I did not add the walnuts because my kids don’t like tem. My son really enjoyed this, I sprinkled a little cheese on his piece. Made this on the stove top. I will definitely make this again.
