In Iran, this fragrant stew made with split peas and lamb is known as khoresht gheymeh and is served topped with chips to make it even heartier! It’s the perfect meal to warm you up in winter, and works equally well cooked with cauliflower to make a wholesome vegetarian version of the dish.

Save 1/3 when you buy 3 or more 1 portion blends (RRP £1.79) in any combination!

Please note if you're making a bigger batch, you'll need to scale up the fresh ingredients in proportion, but the spices only by ⅔ or it will be too intense!

  2. Stir in the garlic, lamb (if using cauliflower add later) and FRAGRANT WINTER STEW BLEND then cook for 10 minutes or until the lamb is beginning to cook around the edges
  3. Stir in the split peas and 400ml water then cover and simmer for 45 minutes or until the split peas are nearly tender
  4. Stir in the tomatoes and 1 tsp salt (and add the cauliflower now if using) then simmer for 30 minutes or until the split peas are soft, the lamb is tender and the sauce is rich and thick
  5. Cook the chips (if using) and rice now
  6. Stir the juice of the ½ lemon into the stew, top with the chips (if using) then serve with rice and yogurt on the side

We enjoyed the lamb version so much we have ordered 4 extra packs to hold a dinner party for friends - thank you.

Glad you really enjoyed this and what a treat for your friends! Thanks for sharing and happy spicing!

No lamb so Beef and Pepper Kormas instead. Also we had the delicious stew with some mash and vegetables. A lovely stormy winter's night made brighter with this tasty repast. Thanks as usual.

Someone roll out the red carpet... this beautiful crimson dish deserves a standing ovation!

5/5

Tried this today. Lovely flavour. Not too spicy just flavoursome. Made with cauliflower as a vegetarian version. I am not a vegetarian but my wife is. I didn't miss the meat at all.

Glad you enjoyed this- we agree that the flavours are absolutely delicious! Thanks for sharing and happy spicing!
