Kabuli Palaw takes center stage at the Afghanistan World Dinner – a festive dish full of flavors, symbolizing community and hospitality.

The mixture of sweet raisins, caramelized carrots, and fragrant rice tells of the country's rich culture and eventful history. Originally a luxury dish of the upper class in Kabul, Kabuli Palaw became the national dish and an expression of festive culture throughout Afghanistan. Over time, as the dish became accessible to broader sections of the population, its name changed to Qabeli Palaw – an indication of the skill of the cooks, derived from the Dari word “qabel,” which means “capable, worthy, or competent.” Today, in times of political repression and social crisis under Taliban rule, the dish also stands for the resilience of a culture that refuses to be silenced.
