Our family of six fled unstable Afghanistan in August 2021 - me, Najila, my husband Salim and our four children. We had to give up most of our traditions. Recipes that had been passed down in our family from generation to generation were some of the few family heirlooms that we were able to bring with us. I love cooking a variety of ethnic dishes using old family recipes and want to share the cuisine of my home region of Parwan in northern Afghanistan and earn money for my family through a new catering business. My husband Salim and I recently completed Safe Serve training and testing and recently received our license. We named the restaurant business after our eldest daughter Sunbul. Come and discover Menu Afghanistan - a colorful palette of traditional Afghan dishes prepared with love, joy and generosity.
If interested in Farsi immersion and cooking classes, please contact Horse Education Group to book a session with Najila or Salim. This is a culinary experience where you can cook your favorite Afghan dish and learn Farsi at the same time.
With Farsi Cooking Immersion, you can also share a meal with your family and learn more about Afghan traditions.

Influenced by Persian,Indian, Middle Eastern and Central Asian traditions, food from Afghanistan offers a delicious combination of flavors. A lot of spices are used, but thecuisine is not spicy. Instead, spices make dishes deliciously flavorful.
