Beef fried with onion and carrots, with potatoes simmered in a covered kazan. The potatoes absorb the meat juices and become tender.

Method

Heat the oil in a kazan until very hot. Cut the beef into small pieces and fry over high heat until browned.
Add the diced fat-tail fat and fry for another 3 minutes.
Cut the onion into half rings and the carrots into thick sticks. Add them to the kazan together with the garlic and fry for 7–10 minutes, stirring.
Cut the potatoes into quarters, add them to the meat and fry for 5–10 minutes.
Add salt, pepper and cumin, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to the lowest setting.
Simmer for about an hour, until the meat is tender. Serve hot with fresh onion.
