A traditional Persian comfort food featuring tender lamb chunks slowly simmered with yellow split peas in a rich tomato sauce, topped with crispy potato sticks. This aromatic stew is a staple of Iranian home cooking and a customer favorite.
Gheimeh is one of Iran's most cherished comfort foods, and at Nik Persian Restaurant, we prepare it with the same love and care that Persian families have for generations. This hearty stew begins with tender chunks of lamb that are slowly braised until melt-in-your-mouth tender, combined with yellow split peas that add a subtle nutty flavor and creamy texture.
The rich tomato-based sauce is seasoned with turmeric, cinnamon, and dried lime (limoo amani), giving Gheimeh its distinctive tangy depth. What truly sets this dish apart is the crown of crispy golden potato sticks on top, adding a delightful crunch that contrasts beautifully with the velvety stew beneath. Served with fluffy saffron rice, this is Persian comfort food at its finest.
