Kuku is a vegetarian dish, made with whipped eggs which then are folded in with various ingredients. It is similar to the Italian dish frittata or an open-faced omelette .
Dinner, as one main meal, is recommended to be light. It would be a good idea to serve the meal with bread rather than rice, which is calorific. Kuku is one of the options for your dinner meals. So here is a recipe which the Tabrizi try often.

To limit the amount of oil consumed in the cuisine, you are advised to apply non-stick frying pan in oven. Many would consume olive oil for frying but it is recommended to go for Canola oil or sesame seeds oil. Although olive is very beneficial in terms of good health, it is not proper for frying at all.

Then turn over and allow it over the heat till crispy and golden in color. Kuku is ready. Remove to a serving dish and serve with fresh Persian bread. Bon Appetite!
Parsley, fights high Uric Acid
Parsley is a perfect vegetable which is consumed in some cuisines. The leafy vegetable lessens the uric acid and lowers blood pressure and therefore, the elderly are recommended to consume it. The good-smelling herb also contains minerals like iron and calcium and vitamin A and precursor of vitamin C, best for old people. Actually, parsley is a source of vitamins which are good for those with weak safety system so it should be on tops of their list. Girls and women should consume should not consume the herb more than 200 grams a day; especially pregnant women since it might increase the risk of abortion.
In general, parsley is good for periods.

Walnuts, Anti Eczema

According to the research carried out lately, consuming 6 full walnuts, 40 grams, supplies the body with almost 2 miligrams of vitamin E. Women's daily need for the vitamin is 3 miligrams and for men it is 4 miligrams. So walnuts are good nuts for supplying this vitamin in the body. Of course, walnuts are a little calorific; eating 2 walnuts provides the body with 45 kilocalories of energy which equals 1 fat unit and therefore the nuts should be consumed in moderation otherwise they will lead into obesity. Consuming walnuts prevents from shortage of water inside the body and lessens Eczema due to necessary fatty acids.
Green Onions, Anti-Prostate Cancer
Green onions are a family of onions. The results of the studies show that eating the vegetable habitually lowers the risk of prostate cancer up to 50 percent. To take advantage of this great feature, make sure to consume it fresh and avoid heating a lot. Salads are great; as they contain plenty of nutritional values. Another interesting point is the amount of its potassium as the studies show that consuming each 100 grams of the green onions will provide the body with plenty of the mineral.
Therefore, stick to eating the vegetable either fresh or in your cuisines to bring your blood pressure under your control.

What to Serve With the Food?

It is recommended to serve Kuku with pieces of wholemeal wheat. Steamed vegetables such as tomato, broccoli and carrot will be good companies as well. This way you will ave a meal full of antioxidants.
If you are anemic, the eggs applied are the main source of iron and it is advised to drink a glass of fresh orange juice beside the dish. Of course, consuming wheat sprouts and broccoli will increase the amount of gained iron.
If you are overweight, serve with no bread. Instead go for a plate of fresh vegetables salad to lower the received energy and instead expand the nutrients.
If you are hypertensive, make sure to consume green-leafed vegetables in your recipe which reduces our blood pressure; especially if you apply spinach leaves. As a drink try a glass of fresh grapefruit.
