Dopiaza (Persian: دوپیازه, meaning "two onions") is the name of two separate dishes, one in the Greater Iran region and one in South Asia. It refers to a family of recipes, typically meat-based, that contain onions as a major ingredient. There are two alternative etymological explanations for its name.
Onions are added at two stages of cooking: chopped or ground in the marinade/gravy, and as a garnish/topping, either pickled or crisply fried.[1]
The recipe uses onions and meat in a 2:1 ratio.[a]
The dish usually contains a meat, usually beef, chicken, lamb,[1] mutton, or shrimp; however, it can also be prepared in a vegetarian style, e.g., with okra.[3]
