Serving Suggestions

How we like to plate it.

Aushak is a dish that wants air around it, bright lighting, a lemon nearby, friends pulling chairs in. Let the herbs lead.

Spring Spread

Plate alongside lemon wedges and a generous scatter of more fresh herbs. Bright lights, open windows, the room set wide.

Brunch

Serve smaller portions with poached eggs over the top. The yolk and the yogurt do something quietly magnificent together.

Solo & Slow

Heat half the tray, save the rest. Eat from a small ceramic bowl with extra mint, the open window, the slower kind of evening.

Perfect For Gatherings

"I'm not even a leek person."

, what people say right before they ask for seconds

A Green Dish That Earns The Second Helping

The platter that empties before the bread does.

Aushak is the dish people surprise themselves with. They come in saying they aren't a "leek person," they leave asking for the recipe. It's the rare green platter that disappears before anything else on the table.

Made the way Afghan grandmothers made it, only frozen, only quicker.
