In Pardiz (Farsi for paradise), Manuela Darling-Gansser returns to the country where she spent her early childhood to explore one of the world’s oldest and greatest cuisines – one that is as overwhelmingly generous as it is subtle, elegant and alluring.
Travelling from Tehran to the Caspian Sea and from the desert to the high central plains, Manuela reveals the stunning variety, ingenuity and delicacy of Persian food in 70 recipes. Its emphasis on sharing and heavy use of vegetables and herbs is particularly well suited to our modern way of eating, and none of the recipes are too time-consuming or complicated. Begin a feast with olives and walnuts marinated in pomegranate molasses, try beautiful vegetarian dishes like Salad-e tabestani (Summer egg salad) and Ku ku-ye bademjan (eggplant frittata), enjoy mains like fish kebabs and the famous Persian chicken, walnut & pomegranate stew, and savour delicate desserts like Cardamon, lemon & buttermilk icecream.
A deeply personal tale and an unforgettable journey through the culinary landscapes of both ancient Persia and modern-day Iran, this lavish cookbook rejoices in the land, life, flavours and food of this enigmatic country.

Manuela Darling-Gansser was born in Lugano, Switzerland. She spent the first nine years of her childhood in Iran before returning to school in Zurich. An inveterate traveller and keen linguist, she has lived in the US, Japan, Italy and the UK. She has visited other parts of Asia, India, North Africa, Central Asia and the Scandinavian countries. Inspired by family traditions, she has been a passionate cook all her adult life. Her previous successful travel and food books include: Under the Olive Tree, Autumn in Piemonte, Winter in the Alps, Spring in Sicily, Top 10: Recipes for the Beginner Home Cook and Four Seasons, a Year of Italian Food. She lives with her family in Sydney.
This book is a celebration of that time; a compilation of memories, stories and beautiful recipes that underline the depth and broad appeal of this great and enduring food culture. In Pardiz, Darling-Gansser shows how seamlessly Persian food fits with trends of today: flourishing food markets; the primacy of local ingredients; the health-giving aspects of vegetable-centric dishes; and the joys of a shared table. The latter is a theme in her book--and in her life. In her choice of recipes--recognizing the great virtue that is simplicity--Darling-Gansser provides a sense of the diversity of Persian food--whether it is served in a restaurant, eaten at home, prepared for a picnic, or enjoyed on the street, the setting can determine what is served. Ultimately, she encourages readers to embrace the sociability that goes with the food as much as the food itself.
