👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Put the meat in a large pot with the water and add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, cumin, turmeric, baharat, cardamom, salt and black pepper.
    Large pot
  2. 2
    Bring to a boil and skim off the foam. Turn down to low and simmer 2.5–3 hours, until the meat is tender.
    ⚙ SimmeringStove
    💡Skim off the foam that rises at the boil, and after that only a gentle simmer: a hard boil clouds the soup and toughens the meat.
    💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.
  3. 3
    Remove the meat from the soup, take it off the bones and return the meat to the soup.
  4. 4
    Serve hot in deep bowls with the cilantro.
  5. 5
    Eat with Buns for dipping.
