Persian Version

Here is the easiest way to explain to you all how to make a Persian Choresh or Stew. First you want to wash and chop about 3 bundles of parsley and a few cloves of chopped garlic and throw into your frying pan that is coated with oil. Fry ingredients until they are tender. Next you want to boil a half full pot of water. Once boiled, add in the fried parsley and garlic. Next you want to add in chopped celery. You want to also add in about a tray of cubed stew beef and a half of a chopped onion. For the spices you want to include a tablespoon of dry mint, tumeric, cumin, salt + pepper. For that sour persian flavor all you Persian food lovers add in a few dried lemons that are available at any of your local persian market. For best results you want to poke holes into your dried lemons with a knife. Once cooked let the pot simmer for about 3 hours, the longer the stew cooks the better it will taste and the softer the meat will be.



Here I substituted Red Kidney Beans for Meat to make the dish vegetarian. Everything else is the same just hold the meat and add in the beans of choice. Of course in this situation the dish can be made within an hour or so.
