[@aketabi]

Thank you so much for this video, Amoo. I had not heard of this dish before, but I love how it is a simple one pan dish and is perfect for a cold night. Thank you as always!

[@Mary87-qo1er]

I love Iranian food ❤❤❤

[@thomaskingschillerlein7843]

Easy as a day at the beach! He should've seared the meat first, tho, to give em some roast aromas! And thx for the vid/recipe Homie!

[@SomePotato]

This looks super tasty. If I've learned one thing in life, then that there is no such thing as a bad stew. Will definitely give this a try!

[@fetahmehinovic8770]

Thanks for the video greetings from SarayBosna

[@zahraaledavoud7080]

Lovely❤❤

[@andromeda8368]

that looks delicious. my family makes it slightly unorthodox by using ground meat, and we add fried potatoes in it as well. i look forward to trying your recipe!

[@tegaidayt]

I was thinking fried potato’s would be good.

[@PlanB-3751]

It looks very nice, thank you 👍 Greetings from Egypt 💪🇪🇬💪 Cheers 🎉

[@SweatLaserXP]

Very nice dish! I'm going to try this one soon.

[@rmk2053]

In Germany we call it "Gulasch". It's prepared very similarly. We add more onion (same amount as for meat) and Paprika. But we cook it in a big pan to get more roasted aromas. This recipe originally comes from Hungary. Dear Yousef, thank you very much for sharing all your amazing recipes❤We love you

[@pulykamell]

Not really. There's dozens, if not more, beef stews like this. Paprika defines gulasch. As this doesn't have paprika, it's not really gulasch, other than it's a beef stew. You may as well say Texas chili is gulasch because it's also made with cubes of meat, sometimes with onions (though very often just garlic), and made with powdered red chiles. The history of this dish does not seem to involve Hungary if you dig into it. This dish is often (perhaps even usually) made with ground/minced meat, which Hungarian gulasch is not.

[@rmk2053]

Right, every culture has its own meat cube recipe and every single one is amazing, delicious. The wonderful thing is we all meet here, talk about it😊The Chili Queens brought a fantastic recipe to San Antonio. My Dad's family is american-german. They added Sauerkraut, potato cubes and sometimes even pineapple to the Texas Chili. ☺️Try it and tell me your opinion

[@noamto]

@@pulykamell Not just paprika, but beef is what first of all defines gulash. It's literally in the name...

[@preuc3367]

Thank you for the video

[@SebastianGonzalez-jp8io]

This looks amazing :)!

[@jaymeez]

Looks Delicious

[@necrodaemonterrorsathan3748]

Hello Yousef, Iranian languages are similar to Slavic ones, and the dishes are too! The way you cook is great and I regret to have discovered your YT channel so late, but I have to make it all up and try to cook as many of your recipes as I can. Greetings from Poland! We love Iran, we love Persian people, we admire Persian culture. See you in a free world! Artur

[@raygus999]

Thank you Yousef, for this suggestion. I don't have that clay pot so I suppose I have to use another pot that can be used on electric stove. Looks very good and rather easy to make, but I would maybe make that alternative with part of the meat being lamb liver.

[@radicalmoderate2730]

Looks great I'm thinking of trying it with left over brisket lol

[@stefchollet]

[@hermandemello2200]

[@Parmys1]

Yum!!

[@muhamedhadzibeti1026]

Great meal

[@LillaBella8]

Wow 🤤 😋

[@sarnaseven19]

Have always watched your videos and I fell in love with Persian food. It's just so hearty and comforting. I like how Persian cuisine is not so heavy on spices but it's still flavourful and delicious! I've made some of your rice and meat recipes for my kids too and they loved it. Appreciate that you're still sharing your passion and knowledge with the whole world 😊

[@hansgruber1686]

Very nice Video!

[@hamiddeliri1790]

Thank you, but if I may add my 2 cents: I am aware of the myth that Vavishka was brought to Gilan by Russian occupiers. However, the word "вавишка" (vavishka) does not have a direct or common meaning in Russian. Interestingly, the pronunciation commonly used in Gilan is Vavishke, with its root derived from the word vavishtan, meaning "stirring" in Persian or Gilaki. So the name is most likely Gilaki not Russian. Despite the dish's incredible flavor, its recipe is remarkably simple, consisting of small pieces of meat stir-fried with chopped onion, salt, and spices, with the possible later addition of tomatoes. This simplicity suggests that the concept of such a dish could have emerged spontaneously in various culinary traditions, as stir-frying basic ingredients is a universal cooking technique.

[@Cocc0nuttt0]

add chopped pickles and fried potatoes and this makes Tatar azu instead

[@louizivkovic1752]

Tatar azu use mostly game (venizon, elk, bear, rabbit, wild boar) meat, reason pickles are aded to ease game taste 🎉

[@Theimperialone-o2g]

What's that rice on the side called?

[@IsisBedir]

❤❤❤❤

[@aslkdjfzxcv9779]

yum

[@MahAk-oc8sy]

❤

[@TWOCOWS1]

My friend, you need to change your cutting board. The one you have is huge and got furrows/grooves at all edge to catch the possible juices. you don't need that. instead, it traps your cut vegetables when you try to get them offf into your pan. it is very unwieldy.

[@ShinRyuTensei]

This was great I didn't know Iran has a Russian dish. Thank you for sharing!

[@nalotaller9844]

Most Persian food was influenced by other Europeans. Research. Cabbage Dolmeh some European countries have it. Persian Empire was very big all the way in Europe as well.

[@nikolamilinovic1230]

I can see why would someone use liver. Liver pairs very well with the onion and if not overcooked it very much could go well with this tomato/onion base.

[@asterixky]

It would be so much better with red wine.

[@pearltopaz]

Wow, I had no idea Persian food had any Russian influence! Thanks for showing us this unique dish!

[@Mythought-g8c]

Russia is just north of Iran, geography, lol

[@Mythought-g8c]

@ It's just beef stew, lol

[@bopeep268]

I am almost sure that my mom makes the liver version, it is interesting 😅

[@WinterSown]

My father was from Vienna, he called this guyas. In out house we did not add tomato but a lot of paprika. So good. Your rice is beautiful.

[@tegaidayt]

Would fenugreek work in this?

[@bopeep268]

Aromavise, I i think it might overtake 😮 but try it!

[@TheHungarianOak]

cool facial hair colors sir!

[@Kumurajiva]

How about pork? Can I use pork?

[@humbledandgrateful7411]

Hope you heal from your hurt soon 🙏✝️🌹

[@mohabatkhanmalak1161]

I can picture this being slow cooked on top of a Samovar somewhere in the distant provincies of Russia. The Czar would be proud to have it! Thanks for sharing.🦋

[@moj1338]

Samovar is too small of a heat source to cook meat dishes on it. Samovar has a heat source at the bottom which heats the water in its tank and steam comes up its narrow chimney to warm up the teapot and brew the tea.

[@yvanalean657]

En français ce serait bien quels ingrédients ? Merci

[@1971carmichael]

lovely dish...tousef u need some grecian 2000 om that beard just saying lol

[@rozittaguseyn]

It’s not Russian

[@a.i979]

You should try indian 'mutton/ beef korma'. It has more aromatics, more spices used.

[@TeeTee-zm2re]

​@texmexexpressIndians invented chess ya know 😂

[@TeeTee-zm2re]

@texmexexpress Aryans originated in India. So this dish probably Indian in it's origins.

[@TeeTee-zm2re]

@texmexexpress we Indians still cannot master indoor plumbing though 😢

[@stephendufort4154]

we would like to see you at least eat one or 2 spoon fulls

[@blindsoldier]

Congrats on putting Iranian on title and not Persian. Don’t be ashamed of it. We see Turkish food, not Ottoman food.

[@shinelikethesun3147]

This is similar to Nigerian stew…🤔
