What variant to stay - everyone decides for himself, in any case, with the right preparation ABC meat will be very tender. The meat can be taken from the shoulder or leg, though, and then everyone decides for himself. First you need to cut the meat across the grain into thick wedges about 1 cm and a length of 3-4 cm, RUB it with salt, pepper and other spices to taste. Then put in a pan with hot oil and fried until taromenane. Fried meat should continue to simmer on low heat, covered, plugging it with broth or water so that the meat was completely covered with liquid.

Special stage in the preparation of ABC is to prepare pastry filling. It can be done in different ways: the easiest option is to ignited the flour in a dry pan until creamy and add to the almost completed ABC at the very end of cooking. Another option is calcined flour diluted with the broth in which the stew meat, and added to the meat together with vegetables.
