This stew has a very unique taste due to sumac as main ingredient. Sumac with it’s purple color, salty and zesty flavour gives very unique taste to this beef dish. . In Iran and Middle East countries sumac is popular spice. In Iranian cuisine sumac is used for garnishing kebab or rice. You can add it to salad as well. This stew is one of those forgotten dishes in Persian cuisine and i try to record and save it. This is my mother’s recipe for sumac stew with beef but you can substitute beef for lamb meat.
