Abgoosht (Persian: آبگوشت Âbgušt, pronounced [ɒːbˈɡuːʃt]; literally "meat broth") is an Iranian stew. It is also called dizi (Persian: دیزی, pronounced [diːˈziː]), which refers to the traditional stoneware crocks it is served in. Some describe it as a "hearty mutton Persian soup thickened with chickpeas."
Preparation
Ābgoosht is usually made with lamb, chickpeas, white beans, onion, potatoes, tomatoes, turmeric, and dried lime. Other variations exist in the beans used, such as kidney beans and black-eyed peas. The ingredients are combined and cooked until done, at which point the dish is strained. The solids are mashed as gusht kubideh (Persian: گوشت کوبیده, literally "mashed meat") which is desired in two stages; First, they eat its juice with pieces of bread or dried bread (for the useful use of dry bread) and the rest of the ingredients are eaten with a meat grinder completely beaten or unbeaten with bread, onions and seasonings such as pickles and vegetables. The popular Azerbaijani dish piti is a variety of abgoosht and encompasses many similar dishes in the region.
