Ingredients:
Fresh mint: 150 grams
Sugar: 1 Kilogram
Vinegar: 100 grams
Water: 2 Cups
Directions:
Mix the sugar and water and place it on the heat. Wash the mints well and then pour them into the boiling syrup until the flavor of the mint is absorbed. Then add the vinegar and let the syrup get firm. Now sift it through a filter until the mint leaves are separated from the syrup. Keep the syrup in the fridge after getting cold. Mix a small amount of syrup with water and add some grated cucumber before serving.
Sekanjabin is also served along with lettuce on Sizdah Bedar also known as Nature’s Day which is celebrated on April 2. The occasion is an Iranian festival held annually on the thirteenth day of Farvardin (the first month of the Iranian calendar), during which people spend time picnicking outdoors. It marks the end of the Nowruz holidays in Iran.
