Kuku Sabzi
Ingredients
To grind walnuts, pulse in a food processor or place in a resealable plastic bag and roll with a rolling pin until finely ground. Be sure to thoroughly dry herbs before adding them to the egg mixture, as excess water can cause the kuku to become spongy. Look for edible dried rose petals at Middle Eastern markets or online.
