I am an Afghan who lives in London! Let me know when you are coming so I will introduce you to my Mom and some friends who are passionate about food. I am a lawyer in England but love cooking. So my wife is lucky. Having said that I am an Afghan with an Indian soul. Zindabad Afghanistan and Jai Hind. I love all of your programs/films or documentaries - whatever you call them. Respect from an Afghan.

The first time I tried Afghan food it was a special feeling. To celebrate the end of a course, my pupils and I decided to eat in a room of the Red Cross in Austria. We paid some refugees to cook traditional dishes instead of going to a restaurant. We got specialties from Tunisia, Nigeria, Chechenia and Afghanistan. I remember the Afghan refugee fondly. The rice he cooked was outstanding. I remember he used raisins, chickpeas and white onion. He teared up when he saw how much we appreciated his food.
Some years later I had the pleasure to meet a young Afghan family with 5 children. The mom was only 27 years old. She showed me what she had cooked for some relatives. The kitchen and the table were full of different yummy dishes. She let me try some of them. Her kids were adorable.

I’m not Afghan and I can’t speak to the authenticity, but it looks great. I love my local Afghan restaurant in California. I’ve had Afghan food while in India and it was fantastic. I love the general flavor profile in middle eastern cuisine and I have noticed that Indian food is much spicier. I like both!

The one thing I saw you bypassed in your restaurant experience is Afghani naan. It is unlike any naan I have experienced in Pakistan or India (having travelled widely in both countries). Many mornings while in Afghanistan a nice fresh Afghani naan and tea made a great start for a day. It is a staple for the common man in Afghanistan because it is filling and cheap.

I am a Yousaf Zai from Pakistan but as we live in Karachi we aren't authentic anymore and follow the mixed culture followed by the other people in Karachi. The only thing that has remained Afghan in me are my looks, facial structure, and name. And, I am always attracted to traditional cuisine. Love your content!

I miss the food from Afghanistan, I was deployed 2005 2007, my job had us building schools, hospitals and roads... all required meals and meetings ... I ate like a king and the hospitality was unmatched anywhere else in my life. I was lower enlisted and no one special... but the people where warm and caring despite the hard situation that still exists.

Yea that looks pretty much authentic to what my mom would cook. Being an Afghan myself I wouldn't travel to Afghanistan right now with Taliban's presence. I was 40 days old newborn baby when we moved out of Afghanistan due to the war, but I have been back home 3 times since I got 18 and every time I didn't wanted to return ❤️🇦🇫🇦🇫
Btw I love your videos and namaste to your wife🇮🇳🇳🇿

I remember my first time trying Afghan food back in 2017, i swore by it as one of the best cuisines i've ever had. Everyone around me thought i was crazy that i'd branch out from the local meat pies and sausage sangas. However, in 2022 I'm glad that Afghan food is now more noticed and consumed by people around the world. It truly is a beautiful cuisine and a very hospitable people who have had to overcome the shadow of war.

How authentic was this food? I would love to hear an Afghan's take on it. Also, leave a Namaste Ji for little Hamna! She is a big fan of Afghan cuisine 😍
