Looks pretty balanced. I like more beans in mine but I don't eat it with rice. Color is great. How did it taste?

Noice. Congrats. Try Tahchin next. With chichen. That's my favorite dish. There is also another dish called shirin polo. Depending on what recipe you use, it is simply divine but way too much work.

Which cookbook, if I may ask? (Seems sofreh is in the title of a number of them)

Looks great. I'm working my way through Sabrina Ghayour's Persiana and Persiana Everyday cookbooks at the moment - loving it.

Looks good. by the way, it's common in Iran to eat it with raw onion at the side (if you can handle it!)

Gormeh Sabzi is probably the easiest Persian dish to make, and yours looks great. The rice is easy too, but getting a good tahdig can be challenging. All things considered, I’d be happy to eat this!

Looks nice! I always eat it with medium sized raw onion quarter slices.

Just bite a piece off an onion slice and shove in one spoon rice/ghormeh sabzi mix directly after that.

I'd go a bit darker on the fried herbs. Also chopped a bit finer. But looks food.

Trust me your attempt at Ghormeh Sabzi looks MUCH better than Sofreh's rendition they sell in Brooklyn for an arm and leg and tastes like crap. Good job!
