Step cooking
- Rinse and cut into large portioned pieces 2 kg of lamb (beef, pork or other meat can be). It does not matter whether it is pulp or meat on the bone. Peel 2 kg of potato, 3 white and 1 red onion from all inedible. We don’t cut the potatoes, and chop the white onion with a thin straw.
- We install a barbecue with a cauldron and start a fire. Pour 400-500 ml of vegetable oil into the cauldron and let it warm up well.
- When the oil is hot, we send the whole potato to it. Fry it until golden brown on both sides, so that it “seals” and does not burst during further processing.
- We take out the prepared potatoes and send the mutton pieces to the same oil. If desired, the oil can be replaced - do it at your discretion.
- Fry lamb in boiling oil also until golden brown - this will take 2-3 minutes on each side.
- We spread the potatoes in a deep bowl and season with spices: salt, ground black pepper, ground coriander and zira (it can be pre-ground between the palms). Turn the potatoes on the other side and repeat the procedure with spices.
- When the lamb is fried, take it out with a slotted spoon, and drain the oil from the cauldron so that approximately ¼ of its original amount remains.
- We return the lamb to the cauldron, and with it we put the chopped onions and spices, if they remain.
- Put potatoes in one layer on top.
- Gently, along the edge of the cauldron, pour 150 ml of water into the dish. Make a minimum fire and cover the cauldron with a lid. Stew potatoes with meat in this mode for 80-90 minutes.
- Over time, we lay out the finished dish on plates and serve to the table with fresh tomatoes, green onions and parsley.
