Comparable to a meat soup, salona is a traditional stew that also consists of vegetables and a special mix of spices that make it amongst the most popular dishes. The meat is first boiled along with onions and to this, fresh vegetables are added; generally, veggies like courgettes, okra and eggplant are used. To lend to its flavour, tomato paste, as well as spices, are also mixed in and the resulting dish is a foodie delight that can be enjoyed with rice or pita bread.
