Ingredients (serves 3)

400g Walnuts

4 Pieces of chicken

1 Onion

5 tbsp pomegranate paste

3 tbsp sugar

2 tbsp oil for frying

Salt, pepper, turmeric, and diluted saffron to taste

 Direction:

Chop the onion and fry in a pot in a little oil (2 tbsp). Add 1 tsp turmeric. Continue to stir and fry on medium heat until the onion is soft. Then, add the ground walnuts and pomegranate paste and continue to stir for another 3-4 minutes.

Brush the salt, pepper, and saffron over the chicken pieces and fry separately on both sides (or boil in water for half an hour with one whole onion). When the chicken is cooked, add to the other ingredients.

Add six cups of water to the pot and bring to the boil. Then lower the heat and cover the pot. Allow the stew to simmer for 3-4 hours until the walnut oils surface.

The stew is now ready and must be served with plain rice.
