Preparation
It is made from lamb chops or veal, onions, tarragon leaves, cherry plums or tkemali (cherry plum sauce), dry white wine, mixed fresh herbs (parsley, mint, dill, coriander), garlic and salt. Chakapuli can also be made with beef or mushrooms instead of lamb.
Chopped lamb is boiled with white wine in deep pan and then the pan is placed in the oven and cooked slowly for 1.5 hours. After this process, the lamb is stirred in the tkemali sauce and chopped greens, garlic are added. The dish is cooked another 5 minutes in the oven and is rested for 5 minutes before serving.
