afghan cuisine

Afghan cuisine is mainly influenced by Indian, Persian and Mongolian cuisines, due to Afghanistan's central location along Asian trade routes. It is largely based on Afghanistan's main crops, such as wheat, maize, barley, and rice. Accompanying these staple grains are native fruits, vegetables, and dairy products, such as milk, yogurt, whey, pomegranates, grapes, and sweet melons. Its culinary specialties reflect the nation's ethnic and geographic diversity.
