About Abgoosht

Abgoosht, also known as Dizi, is a traditional Persian dish celebrated for its hearty and comforting qualities. Originating from Iranian cuisine, it's a slow-cooked stew featuring lamb, chickpeas, white beans, potatoes, tomatoes, and spices like turmeric and dried lime. Often served in two parts, the broth is sipped first, while the solids are mashed and enjoyed separately. Rich in protein from the lamb and legumes, Abgoosht provides essential amino acids and is a good source of dietary fiber, aiding digestion. The tomatoes and lime contribute antioxidants and vitamin C. However, it can be high in saturated fat depending on the cut of lamb used, and excessive salt may be added during seasoning. Choosing leaner meat and moderating salt can enhance its nutritional profile while preserving its deep flavors and cultural significance.
