A Recipe for Bolani With Tomato Chutney and Doogh | Eater

"Founded in November by Afghan refugee Walwala Jalalzay and a business partner as a way to feed fellow refugees, this Shengjin, Albania cafe offers comforting, traditional Afghan street foods. Its bolani—fried, filled flatbreads—are prepared with a potato-and-chive stuffing and served with a tangy tomato chutney, and meals are commonly accompanied by dogh, a frothy yogurt drink flavored with cucumber and mint that provides refreshment and a true taste of home. The operation grew out of Jalalzay’s displacement from Kabul after the Taliban seized power and emphasizes authentic flavors and community support." - Walwala Jalalzay
