Description

Salamati is a gateway to Persian culinary culture, with mouth-watering recipes that are simple, celebratory and appealing, flexible and full of flavour. Perfect for fans of Sabrina Ghayour (Persiana), Yasmin Khan (The Saffron Tales) and Shadi Hasanzadenemati (The Enchantingly Easy Persian Cookbook).

Hamed Allahyari cooks to connect and hearing the joyful words Salamati (Persian for health and cheers ) brings him back to the memories of home. In Iran Hamed was a chef and restaurateur but when a crisis of faith imperilled his life, Hamed was forced to flee to Australia by boat so he could remain safe.

After his perilous escape, it was natural for Hamed to gravitate towards food. His first dream was to find work, then the next was to open a business: his heartfelt cafe and restaurant SalamaTea, which launched in 2019. As soon as he could, Hamed employed fellow refugees and asylum seekers, giving them the work experience that he found so hard to come by himself.

In his stunning debut cookbook, Salamati; Hamed melds Persian culinary culture and an understanding of different flavours to create recipes that are truly his – and now ours – to share.

With every swipe of warm lavash through herbed dadami dip, every bite of braised lamb with dried lime and saffron rice, Hamed shines a light on his Persian past as he continues to build an optimistic future. Packed with beautiful recipes and gorgeous photography throughout, tuck into authentically accessible dishes such as;

Halim Bademjan (Lamb, Lentil and Eggplant Casserole)
Fesenjun (Walnut and Pomegranate Chicken Stew)
Sabzi Polow Ba Mahi (Fish with Herb Pilaf)
Khoresh Bamieh (Slow-cooked Beef and Okra)
Lubia Polow (Green Bean Pilaf)
Persian Love cake
Bastani Sonnati (Persian Ice Cream)

Wherever you live and whatever your background, you are invited to join the feast.

About the Author

Hamed Allahyari was born in Iran and arrived in Australia as a refugee in 2012. In Iran, Hamed was a chef and restaurateur when his life was placed in danger. He soon realised that leaving - immediately - was his only option. He travelled to Indonesia, then by rickety fishing boat towards Australia where he was detained on Christmas Island. Hamed was released into the community and slowly built a new life. His Melbourne restaurant SalamaTea is a hard-won sanctuary, a business that fuels his immigrant dream as well as a place for sharing pride in Persian cooking. Hamed has also brought his flair and talent to the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre and the Free to Feed cooking school. He is much loved in Melbourne food circles for his advocacy for other refugees as well as support for food service operators during the pandemic.
