Ojakhuri
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Even with ordinary ingredients, the Georgians can create something interesting. If you think about it, in this simple recipe for ojakhuri, we use simple potatoes and pork, but they are cooked in a rather unusual way. We usually stew all these ingredients together, but here they are fried separately, giving the dish a very interesting and rich flavor. I've already cooked ojakhuri several times at home, and it always turns out delicious. In fact, among my family, this dish has become one of the favorites, as they always ask me to make ojakhuri for them. The finished dish can now be served.
