The cook, technician and blogger

Rotem Liberzon

is the queen of Persian cuisine and the Persians are known for their unique rice dishes.

In honor of the holiday, Liberzon prepares not a stew but a rice pie.

A pastry with a layer of brown and crispy rice, which hides a bunch of legumes with lots of fried onions.

This is a great dish that can be used as a festive addition to one of the meals on the three days of the holiday or be a rich dish on its own, especially if there are vegetarians in the family.

Turn the festive pastry onto a large, beautiful serving plate and serve in the center of the table.
