Did you know that one of the true symbols of the Afghan New Year is Haft Mewa? This mixture of seven different nuts and fruits is a must-have to ring in the Afghan New Year.

I have over sixty Afghan food recipes on this blog. Use this search field to find my most popular recipes—bolani, shohla, kebab—or a specific dish you may be looking for.
