Shahnaz Zikria relocated from Afghanistan during the 1980s to Australia. To inculcate the importance of the rich Afghan heritage, culture and the passion for classic cuisine amongst her children, she maintained a recipe notebook. After years of being away from the country, it was food and hospitality that kept the connection with Afghan heritage alive in her household. This notebook has now been crafted in the form of this cookbook, which continues to live through many generations. This family cookbook has been written by the support of her daughter, Freshta, showing that food has the power to keep a culture alive in another place, in another time, and with another generation of life.|A Royal Afghan Affair encapsulates the soulfulness of Afghan culture through food, hospitality, history, landscape and its people. The recipes bring to life the richness of the cuisines, the photographs display the grandeur of the country and the stories depict the depth of its past. It gives the readers a new perspective of a country most commonly synonymous to war, devastation and tragedy. A unique portrait of Afghanistan, this book brings an Afghan meal to your home, whilst sharing insights and beautiful pictures from the country.
A Royal Afghan Affair symbolizes the power of connectivity between a mother and a daughter that brought the book to life; between culture and cuisine; as well as between the past and the future...
