Instructions

  1. You need 6 clay pots with lids. Soak the white beans in the water and let stand overnight, then cook until they are done.
  2. Season the meat with pepper and salt and place it on the bottom of the 6 clay pots. Dice the onions and spread over the meat. Spread the cooked beans over the onions. Dice the carrots and pour over the beans. Cut the potatoes into large cubes and lay them out over the carrots. Place 1 bay leaf, 2 juniper berries and 2 black peppercorns in each pot.
  3. Dissolve 3 tablespoons of tomato paste in 500 ml of water and the wine, season the liquid with salt (caution is advised because the meat has already been seasoned with salt), hot paprika and Chmeli-Suneli and add to the pots. The pots should be filled up to 3/4 full with the liquid.
  4. Preheat the oven to 220 ° C (top / bottom heat), put the pots in there and after approx. 15 minutes reduce the heat to 150 ° C and let simmer for 2 hours.
  5. After everything is done, garlic is pressed through the press and added to the pots just before serving. Approx. 1 toe per pot.
  6. In the original version from the Caucasus, there are also eggplant, tomatoes and zucchini. The amount of carrots and potatoes is reduced accordingly.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
