Javaaher polo, as the name suggests is all about indulging, this is my rendition of the dish, smoked basmati rice and lentil, cooked kateh style with heavy saffron for the Persian flavor, cardamoms with a touch of cinnamon and bay leaves for the Indian aroma, and pinion nuts for the southwestern touch… Trader Joe’s provided frozen cherries, black currants, pistachios, almond slivers, and cashew nuts, inspired by Thai food, orange peels and barberries (zereshk) came from the Persian store, and for the extra mile the tofu was glazed with all the sizzling cherry juice piled around it in the pan, so as you can clearly see javaaher polo is all about going all out while combining what are normally three separate dishes (adas polo + zereshk polo + albaaloo polo = javaaher polo) and even by merit of its name, jeweled rice, is worthy of kings and queens.
