Mirza ghassemi
Mirza ghassemi or mirza qassemi is a Gilani cuisine, appetizer or main course based on tandoori or grilled aubergine (eggplant), distinct to the Northern Iran and Caspian Sea region (specifically Gilan province).. The dish consists of aubergines seasoned with garlic, tomato, oil or butter, salt, and pepper bound together with eggs. It can be prepared as a casserole, and is usually served with bread or rice. The variant made with zucchini instead of aubergine is called kadoo ghasemi. Mirza ghasemi was invented by Mohammad Qasim Khan, the governor of Rasht during the reign of Nasser al-Din Shah (1848-1896), and was developed by him and named after him.[citation needed] He popularized this dish throughout Gilan under the name of Mirza Ghasemi, and after he was elected to the governorship of Fars, he also popularized it in Fars province.[citation needed]
