I decided to make a meat stew with pork vegetables using this recipe. Only instead of zucchini I added eggplant. I have them chopped and frozen. I fried the pork and added onions and carrots. Then I added bell pepper and garlic. Added tomato paste and all the spices. I added a little more ground paprika and coriander, as well as bay leaves. At the end I put tomatoes, they are yellow, eggplants and potatoes. I prepared it exactly according to the instructions in the recipe. The description is very clear and understandable. To top it off, I added chopped dill. The dish came out amazingly aromatic and appetizing. All the vegetables were cooked perfectly and the meat was tender. Excellent combination of all ingredients. The preparation is simple, but a little long. Next time I'll try to cook this dish in a slow cooker. The dish is very satisfying and does not require any addition. Everyone really liked the stew, it was rich and bright. Great recipe. Many thanks to the author 😊
