Made this once with lamb, then again with chicken (the wife isn’t as fond of lamb as me), added some fioretto cauliflower, and it turned out absolutely amazing! The 面片 is super QQ I love it! Thanks for a great recipe 🙂

In reply to Kalia Kliban. That's wonderful to hear Kalia! Yes, it's such a good idea to freeze the meat in small portions for later use. I do the same too.

Since my first review of this recipe back in May I’ve made it many more times and my husband and I both love it. Last night we were trying to think if there was anything that could possibly improve it but we agreed it’s perfect as it is.
I’ve taken to buying boneless leg of lamb when it’s on sale and slicing it for stir-fry, then wrapping it in 13-ounce packets for the freezer. That way making this recipe is very easy.
It’s a satisfying, flavorful one-bowl meal.

This is easily my new favorite! Even my husband, who doesn’t love lamb, enjoyed this dish. So flavorful and a lot easier to make than I anticipated.

In reply to Kalia Kliban. So happy to know you've enjoyed the dish! You can leave the dough to rest overnight. As it will become softer and softer over time, I'd suggest you make the initial dough a little firmer. That is to say to reduce the water slightly.

Delicious! Since my husband and I love cumin and lamb, this dish was a hit. First time making torn noodles. Definitely not the last. Now I want to try pulled noodles, since the dough was so pleasant to work with. The texture of the noodles was exceptional.

I’m going to buy a boneless leg of lamb, slice it for stir fry and portion it for this recipe since I know I’ll be making this again and again. I added a bit of slivered ginger which went well with the other flavors.

Much easier to make than I thought it might be, and when all the prep is done, it comes together in minutes.

How long can the dough rest before tearing? Could it be overnight?

In reply to Alan Soule. Yes! My hometown Lanzhou has the best mutton/lamb dishes.

Delicious combination of spices. I have been the Lanzhou several times and this reminds me of having mutton there.
