Fragrant damlam: recipe from the East
Damlam, the recipe of which came to us from Central Asia, is a nourishing and useful dish, because it is actually cooked for a couple, which allows you to save all vitamins and valuable substances. Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Tatars, Ossetians and Tajiks treat guests to this fragrant dish. The recipe for a damlama has many variations, and the names of dishes vary. But always in the basis of its meat and vegetables, stewed in its own juice in a large cauldron.
Damlama: the recipe is classic
Damlam, the recipe of which we have just found out, can even go out differently from one and the same mistress. Do not scrupulously stick to the proportions or run to the market for the missing product. Damlam leaves room for fantasy and culinary experiments. No fatty fat - we'll cut the lard. Even smoked, why not? Instead of a large carrot, is one very small? Well, we'll manage this. It is likely that someone is preparing this dish in general without carrots, but with mushrooms. And those who do not like too large pieces, it is perfectly permissible to shred vegetables with straw or a cube - this will not be a mistake at all.
