Persian Rice and Potatoes with Veggies


Garlic, onions, dill, parsley, carrots, orange rind, raisins and currants, and crispy fried potatoes were steamed with olive oil and rose water. Loved the outcome, but the house smelled like a rose arbor, not something good cookin' in the kitchen. I can see why the Persians would love this combination, but right now I do not want to be reminded of anything pertaining to flowers. All I can think of is all the hard work it takes to tend the roses.
