Morqe Shekam Por

One of the original and most difficult Iranian foods is Morqe Shekam Por, which is cooked with walnut pomegranate sauce. In Morqe Shekam Por, chicken is cooked with walnuts and pomegranate sauce, and a great flavor.

You can change the taste of this delicious flavor by choosing the desired amount of sugar. In addition, you can use one or two glasses of fresh pomegranate juice for sour taste.

In different parts of Iran, they eat this food with sour and sweet flavors. The ingredients of Morqe Shekam Por include Chicken, onion, garlic, coriander, parsley, oregano, pomegranate paste, tomato paste, walnut, barberry, raisin, plum, cinnamon, pepper, salt, lemon, saffron, turmeric, carrot, potato, oil, and then served with rice, and butter.

This dish was cooked by my friend’s wife and was very tasty.

Hello @Rezgar ,

Thank you for sharing this meal with us, it looks very delicious!

As a person fond of sweet and salty in the same dish, I’m sure I would love the Morqe Shekam Por, furthermore, all these spices such as saffron, turmeric and cinnamon add a very nice flavor to the whole.

What is the green thing that looks like grass?
