Ingredients

In the original Iranian Khoresht Mast, the stew is typically made with ingredients like saffron, dried limes, and Persian spices. However, in this Pomeranian adaptation, we have incorporated local flavors and ingredients to create a unique twist. The Pomeranian-style Yogurt Stew uses traditional Pomeranian spices and replaces saffron with other aromatic spices like cumin, turmeric, and cinnamon. Additionally, the choice of meat may differ, with beef or lamb being commonly used in Pomeranian cuisine. We alse have the original recipe for Khoresht mast, so you can check it out.

Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Beef or lamb — For the best results, choose lean cuts of meat and trim any excess fat before cutting into bite-sized pieces.
  • Yogurt — Use plain yogurt with a creamy consistency for a smooth and velvety sauce.

Tips & Tricks

  • To enhance the flavors, marinate the meat in the yogurt and spices for a few hours or overnight before cooking.
  • Adjust the spices according to your taste preferences. Add more cumin for a stronger earthy flavor or increase the cinnamon for a hint of sweetness.
  • For a thicker sauce, whisk in a tablespoon of flour or cornstarch mixed with water towards the end of cooking.

Serving advice

Serve the Pomeranian-style Yogurt Stew hot, accompanied by fluffy rice or crusty bread. The stew can be enjoyed as a standalone dish or paired with a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Presentation advice

Garnish the stew with a sprinkle of fresh parsley to add a pop of color. Serve it in a deep bowl or on a plate, allowing the creamy sauce to envelop the meat and create an inviting presentation.
