Gheimeh
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gheimeh or Qeymeh (Persian: قیمه) is a Persian and Mesopotamian stew of which the main ingredients are cubed lamb, tomatoes, yellow split peas, onion and dried lime. This stew is garnished with thin potato fries or aubergine and usually served with rice.
Iraqi Qeema is made with finely diced lamb and crushed chickpeas, and is traditionally prepared on a large communal scale at the annual Āshūrā commemorations in southern Iraq. The name qeema is an ancient Akkadian word meaning 'finely chopped'.[1]
