How this kind of dish is made

The source documents this dish but not a method specific to it. The steps below describe how dishes of this kind are generally made.

  1. Soak the dried legumes in advance and drain before cooking.

  2. Place the meat, legumes, and onion in a pot with water and bring gently to a simmer.

  3. Skim the surface and cook slowly until the ingredients are partly tender.

  4. Add the potatoes, vegetables, tomato, and other listed seasonings and cook until fully soft.

  5. Adjust salt and spices near the end.

  6. Serve the broth separately and mash the solids when that is traditional for the dish.

Cook's notes

Cook the legumes until fully tender without unnecessarily breaking them down. Strongly acidic ingredients and heavy salting are best added after the legumes have begun to soften.

Background

This item is associated with Hamedan and the colder central Zagros, where legumes, grains, dried fruit, dairy, and hearty dishes are important.
