This is my wife’s favorite dish at an afghan restaurant we used to go to in San Francisco. I am looking forward to trying this recipe out!
i hv made meatballs many times but not this way. will definitely try ur recipe. loved ur videos n lots of respect from houston, TX
Your Pashto accent is just so beautiful! I wish I could speak it too ! My paternal grandmother was pashtoon. God bless her soul.
Thank you!!
Done watching your Afghan Lamb Kebab video - definitely will try it soon. Then checked your channel and now came here, was wondering if this meatball recipe is similar to Kofta?
You are now my favorite. Very entertaining, especially when you speak with your native language. Love love love!
Thank you so much! Yes this is similar to kofta for sure. You can make it with any spices you want and really any meat. I have a video coming soon where I make it with Impossible Meat!
I think I have been adding too many spices to my sauce with Afghan meatballs, good tip!
I think sometimes it is hard to hold back. I know I am guilty of that as well. But when you add just a few you get the full flavor of what you've added instead of just a creamed soup of flavors. Does that make sense?
Youre the best for making these! I just got married and have been learning to cook and youre helping me so much! Bless you! Are you able to put subtitles for when you speak pashto pleaseeee? I enjoy watching you and would love to know what you say, i only understand farsi 😔♥️♥️
