Afghani Chai
All it takes is a cup of water, green tea, cardamom pods, saffron stamens, a coffee filter and a food bag clip.
Lamb kabab

Dastarkhan
A dastarkhan is an area which is a sheet, large tablecloth, carpet or mat on which an enormous meal served to family and guests on special occasions. There are no set entrees in the dastarkhan, as it is a place to serve the food. The traditional dishes that are served on a dastarkhan are pilau’s, meats, subzi’s or spinach, yogurt, chutneys (mainly mint and tomato and red bellpepper) and many side dishes of fresh tomatoes, onions and salad greens. Meals end with cardamom Choi (tea).
Nan-e Afghani
Nan-e Afghani (Afghan bread) is the national bread of Afghanistan.The bread is oval or rectangular and baked in a tandoor, a cylindrical oven that is the primary cooking equipment of the sub-continental region. The Afghan version of the tandoor sits above ground and is made of bricks, which are heated to cook the bread. The bread, also known as nan, is shaped and then stuck to the interior wall of the oven to bake. Black cumin or caraway seeds are often sprinkled on the bread, as much for decoration as for taste, and lengthwise lines are scored in the dough to add texture to the bread.
