ЧАНАХИ И АДЖАПСАНДАЛИ - ГРУЗИНСКАЯ КУХНЯ - Georgian Chanakhi and Ajapsandali

Eggplant, tomato, potato, bell pepper, herbs – ajapsandali is a lovely mixture of healthy stuff. The aromatic addition of garlic and cilantro makes its favor strong and specific. Ajapsandali is especially popular during the summer, when all of the ingredients can be found in Georgian gardens. A lamb stew prepared and served in a clay pot, chanakhi is more of a sophisticated dish. First there is a layer of lamb pieces and then a layer or eggplant mixed with tomato, garlic, onions and potatoes. All of it is baked and topped with leafy greens. Chanakhi is a great dinner option for meat-lovers who also appreciate the taste of veggies.
