Traditional Georgian dish
Chanakhi (Georgian: ჩანახი) is a traditional Georgian[1][2][3][4][5] dish of lamb stew with tomatoes, aubergines, potatoes, greens, and garlic.
Preparation
Chanakhi is preferably prepared in individual clay pots and served with bread and cheese. The lamb is placed in the pot with the already-melted butter. Onions, eggplants, potatoes, chopped greens, and tomatoes are added in separate layers. After pouring the water, the dish is cooked slowly in the oven for 4.5-5 hours.[3]
