Note

The recipe mentions "Salt Pepper" and "1 Salad Cucumber" in the initial list but not the ingredient list. Ensure you have salt, pepper, and 1 cucumber on hand.

"Sheeps Cheese" likely refers to a fresh sheep's milk cheese like Feta, Pecorino Fresco, or a German Schafskäse. Use a crumbly variety.

If the stew seems too dry during simmering, add a splash of water or broth to prevent sticking.

The cucumber adds a refreshing crunch and moisture; do not skip it if you want the authentic texture described.

Serve the cheese topping last to keep the cheese fresh and the flavors distinct.
