  6. I decided to use the cauldron for cooking. The author fried the meat in a saucepan, and the onions and cucumbers in a separate pan, then mixed everything. But I decided to consistently fry everything in a cauldron, especially since this method of cooking is also characteristic of Georgian cuisine. For example, "Kharcho in Megrelian".

  8. When the meat is browned, I spread the onions and pickles. Keep frying. At this stage, add sugar. This will help the onion extract juice and, at the same time, act as a flavor enhancer.
