kate – Mm, parathas.

Annemarie – Yes, I think the lamb idea is definitely in the lead.

Gabi, Cakespy – Thank you!

I agree about it sounding good as a component of another dish. Can’t wait to see what you come up with.

I would agree with the suggestions of lamb and polenta, and a cinnamony walnuty baklava or some such for dessert.

Would be lovely with crusty bread or maybe parathas. Just delicious. Its a gr8 recipe.

Thanks for the reminder that it is filled with wonderful recipes. For some reason, I can imagine this dish, a little bit thicker, with shish kabob.

It has a great lentil and apricot soup recipe, too. I actually bought a copy for brother, I so enjoyed what I’d made from it myself.

Bron – That’s a great idea, one that hadn’t at all crossed my mind. Thank you!

nex0s – That’s sort of what I was thinking, yum. I actually braised some oxtail last night, but of course now I’m all out of the soup.

Barb – Polenta – what an interesting idea! Thank you.

Helen – Lamb sounds great with this, thank you! The book really does have a lot of interesting ideas, though not all are so hard to imagine. The more classic Russian ideas are easier to wrap my head around, at least. It’s just that Georgian cuisine in particular is known for strange taste combinations.

It sounds and looks delicious, but at the same time, I have a hard time imagining what walnuts will taste like with coriander seeds and tarragon vinegar….Sorry for the lack of suggestions but that’s why! I would be tempted to put some meat in there though. Some lamb maybe?

I’m thinking that if it’s left fairly thick, you could pair it with polenta and maybe some sauteed mushrooms…
