For this recipe you need:
• Parsley 60 gr
• Dill 40 gr
• Cilantro 20 gr
• Mint few leaves
• Egg 3
• Walnut * 30 gr
• Barberry** 15 gr
• Strawberry jalapeno sauce(optional). 1 tsp
• Turmeric, black pepper, salt to taste
• Olive oil 2-3 tbs

*Pecan can be used as substitute
**Chopped, unsweetened, dried cranberries can be used as substitute.

Instructions:
1. Chop all the herbs finely. If using a food processor, only use pulse action as we don’t want the herbs to turn into a mush.
2. Chop the walnuts into small pieces.
3. Add all the above plus the spices, barberries and eggs in a mixing bowl and whisk thoroughly. The more you beat the mixture, the fluffier the end result will be.
4. Pour the olive oil in an 11-inch pan over medium high heat.
5. Pour the mixture in the pan and spread it evenly. Put the lid on and cook for 10 minutes. Check periodically to make sure it doesn’t burn. (Cook it in 2 batches if using a smaller pan.)
6. Then slice up the Kuku while in the pan and section into 4-5 triangles (like a pizza). Then flip each piece over and let the other side cook for another 5-10 minutes.
