​A Sweet Navroze Feast

​Parsi kitchens on Navroze are filled with the aroma of traditional dishes, blending Indian and Persian flavors. Avari, with a decade in hospitality, proudly shares the stunning simplicity of Parsi cuisine.

​Sweet

​Start off with something sweet, so breakfast is usually sev-dahi which is roasted vermicelli with sweet cardamom yoghurt.

​Another popular sweet dish for breakfast on Navroze is Ravo, which is a semolina pudding, quite similar to kheer.

​Main course

​The main course of the Navroze menu is dominated by meat preparations.

​Vegetarian Parsi food

​Taking the opportunity to bust some myths around Parsi food, Avari says one of the most common misconceptions is that Parsi cuisine doesn't have any vegetarian dishes.
