Kabuli Pulao
Afghanistan's celebrated national dish — long-grain rice cooked in spiced lamb broth, crowned with caramelised carrots, plump raisins, and tender braised lamb.
Kabuli pulao、mantu、bolani——来自亚洲十字路口的芳香香料菜肴。
阿富汗美食处于波斯、中亚和南亚烹饪的枢纽地位,其中的佼佼者是喀布里普劳 (qabili palaw):用羊肉蒸米饭,上面撒上焦糖胡萝卜、葡萄干和杏仁——香甜可口,是任何尊贵客人餐点中必不可少的主菜。阿富汗的米饭烹饪是一门独特的学科:将长粒米浸泡、煮至半熟,然后蒸熟 (dampokht),因此每粒米都是独立的。
饺子和奶制品标志着中亚北部的传统:mantu(五香碎肉蒸饺)和ashak(韭菜和葱饺子)都裹着蒜味酸奶和豌豆或肉番茄酱,撒上干薄荷。每顿饭都会撕碎在泥炉中烤制的馕饼,民族特色也贯穿于茶中——南方是绿茶,北方是黑茶,总是搭配糖果或糖杏仁 (noql)。
家庭烹饪主要依靠 qorma 炖菜(以洋葱为主,配以羊肉或鸡肉以及酸葡萄或菠菜等配料)、banjan(番茄茄子配酸奶,这道菜通常称为 borani banjan)和 bolani,一种为街头小吃和斋月餐桌油炸的薄馅饼。香料包括小茴香、香菜、小豆蔻、干薄荷,香气浓郁而不是辛辣,并通过酸奶、新鲜香菜酸辣酱和托什泡菜不断平衡。
喀布尔普拉奥
羊肉埋在蒸米饭中,搭配焦糖胡萝卜、葡萄干和杏仁——阿富汗的国菜,也是厨师的标准。
曼图和阿沙克
蒸肉或韭菜饺子搭配大蒜酸奶和番茄豌豆酱,最后撒上干薄荷。
坦杜尔烤饼
长而有脊的扁面包在泥炉墙上烤制,撕碎后用作几乎每顿阿富汗餐的器具。
科尔马炖菜
用洋葱慢炖羊肉、鸡肉或蔬菜,用番茄、酸葡萄或干酸橙调味,配上米饭。
酸奶和茶卡
滤蒜味酸奶可以冷却饺子、茄子波拉尼和烤肉串,平衡菜肴的丰富性。
烤肉串文化
Chapli kebab(加香料的扁平肉饼)和羊肉串,用煤烤,配上印度烤饼和香菜酸辣酱。

阿富汗美食以喀布尔普拉奥(Kabuli pulao)(羊肉米饭、焦糖胡萝卜和葡萄干)而闻名,还有大蒜酸奶下的曼图(mantu)和阿沙克(ashak)饺子、泥炉烤馕、qorma 炖菜、bolani 酿扁面包和 chapli 烤肉串。它融合了波斯大米、中亚饺子和南亚面包,并以酸奶和干薄荷作为招牌收尾。
阿富汗的食物要清淡得多,酱料也少一些。印度咖喱采用复杂的香料混合物和辣椒辣味,而阿富汗的咖喱则依靠慢煮洋葱、小茴香、香菜和酸葡萄或干酸橙等酸味剂。在阿富汗,大米是主食——蓬松的、颗粒分明的普劳——而不是配菜,酸奶配料取代了奶油肉汁。
不,阿富汗食物是芳香的而不是热的。核心香料是小茴香、香菜、小豆蔻、黑胡椒和干薄荷,少量使用辣椒。辣味存在于调味品中——绿色香菜辣椒酸辣酱和托什泡菜——所以每个食客都会调整自己的盘子。例外的是来自东部普什图地区的 chapli kebab,其中含有明显的辣椒和香菜籽。
Borani banjan 是最简单正宗的开胃菜:煎茄子片,在大蒜番茄酱中短暂炖煮,然后搭配大蒜酸奶、干薄荷和馕饼。博拉尼(Bolani)——一种用香料土豆或韭菜填馅的大饼,用平底锅煎——是不错的第二选择。卡布里普拉奥是目标菜,但其米饭技术首先需要一点练习。
Kabuli pulao 是用炖羊肉(有时是鸡肉或牛肉)制成的肉汤烹制的长粒米,用小茴香、小豆蔻和有时用炭火混合物调味。红烧肉埋在米饭中,蒸熟,然后撒上切丝并用糖焦糖化的胡萝卜、黑葡萄干和杏仁片——一种有意的甜味与咸味的对比。
