Afghan beef and onion dumplings
We loved the mantu at Jazze’s: Each dumpling is filled with grass-fed beef, onions and spices, and they're beautifully topped with garlic yogurt and tomato sauce. This super shareable plate is a feast for the eyes and bellies. According to Jazze’s owner and chef, Nasrin Noori, this traditional Afghan dish is her kids’ special request for their birthdays. A delicious combination of various textures and flavors all in one bite? We’d want it all the time for our birthdays, too!
Noori, who has four kids, came up with the name Jazze’s using the initials from her children’s names. Her menu offers Afghan-American food prepared with organic and locally sourced ingredients. She hopes to create a family-friendly environment where families can feel at home and eat healthy, nutritious meals.
Kids will also love: Boulanee (crisp and hot pastries filled with seasonal veggies — either potatoes, leeks, pumpkin or carrots, served with a side of yogurt for dipping) or the pulled lamb sandwich served with a side of garlic potatoes.
Open: Jazze’s is currently open at Spice Bridge Thursday–Saturday.
Up next: Congolese beignets
