Barooj Fast Food

Barooj Fast Food

Tehran, Iran

Barooj is one of Tehran's most beloved sosis counters, a fast food shop in the north of the city where the sosis-bandari sandwich has been the main event since the 1980s. The sausage is grilled hard and split, loaded into a soft roll with butter, pickles, tomato, and the standard ketchup-mayonnaise combination that defines the Tehran sosis sandwich. Barooj draws a loyal crowd of regulars who have been coming since childhood and now bring their own children. The menu is short, the operation is fast, and the sosis is the reason people queue.

Sosis Bandari

Sosis Bandari

Bandar Abbas, Iran

Sosis Bandari is not a sausage type. It is a dish: Iranian hot dog sausages cut into pieces or scored lengthwise, then cooked down in a spicy tomato sauce with onions, bell peppers, garlic, turmeric, curry powder, and fresh chili. The name means port sausage, from Bandar Abbas on the Persian Gulf coast. Street vendors and sandwich shops across Iran serve it stuffed into a baguette or noon barbari flatbread, sometimes loaded with fried potatoes. It is the country's most consumed fast food after kebab.
