Zardak kebab is a traditional dish originating from the province of Isfahan. The dish is usually made with a combination of carrots, ground beef, eggs, gram flour, onions, sugar, salt, pepper, oil, saffron, and turmeric. The meat is mixed with salt, pepper, grated carrots, gram flour, beaten eggs, and onions.

The mixture is shaped into meat patties (kebabs) that are fried in oil on both sides until fully cooked. A mixture of water, saffron, turmeric, and sugar is boiled until slightly thick, and the syrup is then poured over the fried kebabs. Before serving, zardak kebab is often garnished with chopped parsley.
