Bāmiyeh (Azerbaijani: Ballıbadı Persian: باميه) or Zulbiā and bāmieh (Persian: زولبیا باميه) is a traditional Iranian treat similar to a doughnut. It is made from a yogurt and starch-based dough which is fried before being dipped in syrup. It is a special sweet often enjoyed at Iftar in Ramadan. It is also commonly served with its counterpart the zulbiā (Zoolbia) which is prepared the same way but is a web-like arrangement of strips of dough.
