Khoresh Gheymeh (gheimeh), also called Gheymeh Polo (polo means rice), is a Beef and yellow split pea stew with a distinct flavor of fermented limes or Limo Omani. The stew is flavored with the Persian spice mixture called Advieh, containing warming spices such as cinnamon and cardamom, earthy cumin and coriander, and a touch of ground rose petals.
