Gyuvetchis one of those comfort foods that stir up memories of home made bread, caseroles, and feelings of warmth.
Gyuvetch ia vegitarian dish, to which you can add meat- chicken, beef, pork or even fish, so you can have Gyuvetch whit chiken, beef, pork or fish. Usually it is done in a clay pot and requires long simmering.
I found a video on you tube that can be supportive if you’d like to make this dish.
For this dish you may use different types of vegetables: onions, carrots, peppers, eggplant, okra, zucchini, green beans, garlic, tomatoes, celery, mushrooms, and potatoes. Rice is optional.
Usually the meat is pre-cooked boiled, fried or steamed, and bouillon is used as well.
4-6 portions
6-8 chicken drumsticks and thighs or large chicken cut into portions (you may substitute whit pork ribs or salmon, lingcod, carp stakes- it’s up to your choice). Of course this dish may stay absolutely vegetarian.
