For a richer flavor, consider browning the potatoes slightly before adding them to the meat mixture. If chubritsa is unavailable, basil provides a good substitute, but marjoram or thyme can also be used for a slightly different flavor profile. Ensure the yogurt is at room temperature before mixing with the egg to prevent curdling. Adjust the amount of water as needed to maintain a saucy consistency during simmering. To prevent sticking, grease the baking dish before adding the meat mixture.
