Khoresh karafs

Khoresh karafs is a traditional stew originating from Iran. The stew is usually made with a combination of celery, beef or lamb, onions, parsley, mint, garlic, lime juice, turmeric, oil, salt, and pepper. The onions and garlic are sautéed in oil, then mixed with the meat that's browned and seasoned with turmeric, salt, and pepper. The mixture is covered with water and simmered over medium heat. The celery, parsley, and mint are sautéed until soft, then added to the pot. The stew is simmered for a bit more until the meat is fully cooked, and lime juice is added to the pot near the end of cooking. It's recommended to serve khoresh karafs with rice on the side.
