I took the Armenian hashlama recipe as a basis, it is in it that meat is stewed only with tomatoes and pepper. If you take a larger amount of meat, then the layers will need to be repeated, the main thing is that there are vegetables on the bottom and on top. They give a lot of juice! And the meat is stewed in it, so you don't need to add any liquid. In other recipes, a variety of vegetables are added, they will also need to be cut large enough so that they do not fall apart during long stewing. I stewed hashlama in a cauldron, this is the best dishes for such a cooking process. And served in pots, for beauty. But you can stew immediately in them, also folding meat and vegetables in layers, in the oven. I took spices at a minimum so that the taste of meat was present in the finished dish, fragrant lamb is very good in hashlam! But you can experiment and play with taste. During the period of fresh vegetables, this dish is necessarily present on our table, I put in it young zucchini, potatoes and cabbage, straight leaves, and bunches of herbs. It's very tasty! You can not even put mutton, but then it will no longer be hashlama, but dimlyama, and this is a completely different story.
