Mehrabooni Workshop: From Persian Stew to Pistachio Baklava Cheesecake

Leili’s signature Plum & Spinach Stew and Pistachio Baklava Cheesecake, a comforting main course and a celebratory dessert, brought together in the spirit of kindness.

Leili’s Signature Persian Plum & Spinach Stew
Khoresh-e Aloo Esfenaj, reimagined with Leili’s own spice blend and sauce.

Discover Leili’s personal take on a beloved Persian dish. This original recipe pairs spinach and plums with a specially developed spice blend and signature sauce, giving the familiar stew a distinct identity while preserving its comforting Persian character.

The lesson explores how these elements come together: balancing the fruit’s sweetness and tartness, building depth through seasoning, and bringing the sauce to a consistency that ties the dish together. Alongside the recipe, Leili shares the thinking behind her choices so you can understand what makes this version her own.

It is a dish equally at home at a family table or as part of a thoughtfully prepared meal for guests—a fresh way to experience a Persian favorite through Leili’s cooking.

Pistachio Baklava Cheesecake
Creamy pistachio cheesecake meets the golden, delicate layers of baklava.

This dessert brings two favorites together in one centerpiece: the smooth richness of pistachio cheesecake and the crisp, layered character of baklava. Pistachio takes the lead, connecting the creamy filling with the pastry and giving the dessert its distinctive flavor.

The lesson focuses on bringing these contrasting textures into balance, from preparing the pistachio cheesecake component to working with the delicate pastry and assembling the dessert. Each element contributes to a slice that feels both rich and refined.

Made for celebrations, gatherings, or a special finish to a homemade meal, this Pistachio Baklava Cheesecake offers a memorable combination of familiar flavors in a new form.
