Khoresh aloo

Khoresh aloo is a traditional stew originating from Iran. This savory-sweet stew is usually made with a combination of prunes, lamb or chicken, saffron, sugar, carrots, potatoes, onions, turmeric, salt, pepper, and oil. The onions and meat are sautéed in oil, seasoned with turmeric and pepper, and simmered in water until tender.

The saffron and prunes are added to the pot with salt and sugar, followed by the carrots and potatoes that have been boiled and fried in oil. When the consistency of the stew reaches the desired point, it's typically served warm with rice on the side.
