Cholo kabab soltani(beef soltani)is a combination of one skewer koobideh kabab and one skewer kabab barg.cholo kabab means chelo (pilaf) or Persian rice and sangak bread with kebab.

Kebab and soltani kabob is one of the best foods in Iran, which is usually served at every ceremony or party. Kebab is a Caucasian food and for the first time, Naser al-Din Shah Qajar introduced kebab to Iran.

Later, court chefs changed their way of cooking and transformed from a courtyard to a market food. 

Today’s kebab is considered to be a purely Iranian dish and perhaps the reason for its high price is the high price of meat used because the most delicious kebab is made from mutton. kabab Soltani is a type of kebab that can be used in lamb or veal.

Most of the market kebabs and restaurants use more affordable veal, but if you want to make this delicious dish with mutton, it is best to make it at home.

• Skewer:it is better to use a steel skewer.
• Warm water: to wet your hands while working. Wetting your hands in water is done for two purposes:
• one is so that the meat does not stick to the hand and is easy to skewer and the other is that the water that is put on the kebabs wets the surface of the meat and when the kebab is on Heat, this water evaporates and penetrates deep into the meat, making the meat cook better and make it more tender.

1. Wet your hand completely, take a handful of meat, and make it into a circle.

2. Knead the meat with your hands until it forms a spindle so its tip is thin and its end is wide.

Lamb, hogget, and mutton, generically sheep meat, are the meat of domestic sheep, Ovis aries. A sheep in its first year is a lamb and its meat is also lamb. The meat from sheep in their second year is hogget.

Older sheep meat is mutton. Generally, “hogget” and “sheep meat” are not used by consumers outside Norway, New Zealand, South Africa, Scotland, and Australia. Hogget has become more common in England, particularly in the North (Lancashire and Yorkshire) often in association with rare breed and organic farming.

In South Asian and Caribbean cuisine, “mutton” often means goat meat.^{[2][3][4][5][6]} At various times and places, “mutton” or “goat mutton” has occasionally been used to mean goat meat.^[2]

Lamb is the most expensive of the three types and in recent decades sheep meat is increasingly only retailed as “lamb”, sometimes stretching the accepted distinctions given above. The stronger-tasting mutton is now hard to find in many areas, despite the efforts of the Mutton Renaissance Campaign in the UK.
