Cumin grilled lamb chops

Overview

Cumin grilled lamb chops are a famous dish in Xinjiang. It is usually baked on a barbecue stove using anthracite coal or in a naan pit. Prices are generally based on kilograms. The price I ate last year was 80 yuan per kilogram. If it were in a major tourist attraction, the price might be higher. The lamb chops used for grilled lamb chops are usually grilled from the ribs of sheep (called unmarried sheep in local dialect of Xinjiang people), marinated and grilled with Xinjiang specialty cumin, chili powder, onion and salt. Xinjiang people don’t like to add too many seasonings when cooking mutton and prefer the original flavor. This is also because Xinjiang mutton is delicious and has no smell. The grilled lamb chops are fat but not greasy, the meat is tender, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the mouth is full of juice. It is particularly beneficial to the body and strengthens the spirit. Nowadays, many families use small barbecue ovens at home. You can bake them at home, or bake them in the oven. The taste of oven baking is not as good as that of barbecue ovens or naan pits, but it is more economical and more economical to bake it yourself. Cumin-grilled lamb chops are usually served to entertain distinguished guests. The dishes selected by Xinjiang for the 2008 China Olympics were cumin-grilled lamb chops and large plate chicken. Now these two dishes are used as major dishes during New Years and festivals. They are also must-have dishes for entertaining relatives and friends, especially friends from out of town. The locals will definitely use these two dishes to entertain. Mutton is hot in nature and sweet in taste. It is a good food suitable for nourishing and replenishing yang in winter.

It can replenish deficiency and fatigue, replenish qi and strength, strengthen yang, whet appetite and strengthen strength.
