Ghormeh sabzi is one of the most popular dishes in the Persian part of Iran. It is relatively easy to prepare and yields food for multiple days. That is why typically a large amount of stew is prepared. The herbs and the dried limes create a unique flavour. As the meat is boiled at low temperatures over an extended period of time, it becomes soft enough to be eaten with a fork and a spoon only.
