About Damlama
The Tajik national heritage inventory records damlama as a traditional preparation of meat and vegetables. This version selects its beef option, combined with tail fat, cabbage, roots, pumpkin and eggplant.
Garlic, coriander greens and dill provide the named herbs and aromatics. Salt and an unspecified spice mixture season the combination, while the fatty beef and tail fat contribute richness.
Large cuts and layers characterize the preparation. The inventory describes a covered pot and low heat, bringing the meat, vegetables and herbs together in one steamed dish.
