Ingredients

Quantities below make about 4 servings (Estimated)

Plan ahead. Salt and dry/cure meat in advance (often a day or longer)

Method

  1. Salt and dry/cure the meat at least a day in advance according to the traditional method.

  2. Clean, chop, or otherwise prepare meat salt cured v dried, spices as required.

  3. Lightly sauté onion, garlic, or spices if they are part of the recipe.

  4. Add the main ingredients and cook using the listed method: dry/cure then cook.

  5. Adjust moisture and seasoning during cooking until the ingredients are tender and the flavors are balanced.

  6. Rest briefly and serve with the traditional accompaniments.

Cook's notes

Because the meat is pre-salted, season the finished dish cautiously. The degree of drying strongly affects how long the meat needs to soften during cooking.

Background

Tabahag is a traditional meat-preservation method of Baluchestan. Its importance lies in adaptation to a hot climate and the ability to store meat for extended periods, making it part of local preservation knowledge.
