Chakapuli is a popular Georgian stew consisting of either beef or lamb meat, unripe sour plums, onions, green peppers, white wine, and herbs and seasonings such as tarragon, coriander, garlic, and salt. It is especially popular during spring, when the plums are still unripe.


Chakapuli is often served during the feast of Orthodox Easter, and it is recommended to serve it hot with Georgian bread on the side.
