Griddle mutton

Overview

Mutton has high nutritional value. It can be used as a dietary therapy for those with insufficient kidney yang, soreness of the waist and knees, cold pain in the abdomen, and fatigue. Chestnuts are sweet and warm in nature, enter the spleen, stomach, and kidney meridians, and have the effects of nourishing the stomach, strengthening the spleen, tonifying the kidneys, strengthening the waist, strengthening tendons, activating blood circulation, stopping bleeding, and reducing swelling. These two ingredients are stewed together in a dry pot, which is a great nourishing food in winter. This dry pot mutton dish can be eaten by the general population, and is especially suitable as a dietary therapy for those with weak bodies and cold stomachs. People with symptoms of internal heat such as fever, toothache, sores on the mouth and tongue, coughing up yellow phlegm, etc. should not consume it.
