Add water, black-eye or kidney beans, salt and pepper, to taste. Cover and simmer gently for 1-1.5 hours until meat is tender. Time depends on type of meat used.
Fry potatoes over high heat in the remaining oil, until lightly browned. Add to sauce, leaving oil in the pan. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
Add prepared vegetables to frying pan and fry over medium heat until wilted. Add to sauce, then add dried limes (or lime juice), cover and simmer for further 10-15 minutes. Adjust seasoning and serve with white rice. An exquisite Iranian Dish!
