Description

This fesenjan (fesenjoon) recipe is my interpretation of the classic Persian stew. I use a savory combination of duck, pomegranate molasses, and walnuts. I'm assuming that every household has its own version of this recipe, and this kind of stew can easily be tailored to your tastes.

Ingredient:

  • 8 duck legs
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup water, or as needed
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, or more to taste
  • 2 cups diced yellow onion
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 6 cups chicken broth, or more as needed
  • ⅔ cup pomegranate molasses
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 3 cups walnut halves
