Description
Fesenjoon is the jewel of Persian foods. The velvety texture of creamed walnuts complemented by the tangy flavours of pomegranate molasses creates a perfect nutty and rich flavour.
Exotic Bazaar’s Fesenjoon base is made with Tasmanian walnuts, ground and slow-cooked for several hours, then infused with pomegranate molasses and mild spices.
You can make this sauce into majestic Fesenjoon by adding your favourite meat and/or veggies. Traditionally Fesenjoon is made with chicken and/or pumpkin.
