Qottab (Persian: قطاب qottâb) is an almond-filled deep-fried Iranian cuisine pastry or cake,[1] prepared with flour, almonds, powdered sugar, vegetable oil, and cardamom. The city of Yazd is well known for its qottab.
Qottab, is the last variation of the ancient Persian dish item, "sanbosag" that has come to be known as sambusa in the Indian Subcontinent and beyond. At home in Iran, however, qottab--a confection, is all the remains after the 16th century, that is, except for the region of Laristan and the Persian Gulf coast where sanbosag in its original form of a dish item, is being made.
