Lagman with lamb, wheat flour and onions — Uzbekistan recipe

🇺🇿UzbekistanAdvanced

Cereal and Pasta Dishes

Lagman

Lagman is a Central Asian noodle dish: thick, chewy wheat noodles under a braise of lamb and vegetables seasoned with cumin and coriander. It reached Uzbekistan from the Uyghurs of western China, where the noodles are pulled by hand from a single rope of dough; this home version rolls and cuts the dough, then stretches each strip by hand to get the same chew. In Uzbekistan lagman is more often made looser, closer to a thick soup; the thick kind, with the sauce spooned over the noodles, is the Uyghur way, and that is the one this recipe makes. The sauce, called vaja, is closer to a gravy than a broth.

Krautpfanne (German Cabbage and Sausage Skillet) with smoked sausage, white cabbage and onion — Germany recipe

🇩🇪GermanyMedium

Meat Dishes

Krautpfanne (German Cabbage and Sausage Skillet)

Krautpfanne is a German one-pan supper: white cabbage cut into ribbons, onion and smoked sausage cooked down in lard with caraway and sweet paprika. Kraut is what cabbage is called in southern and eastern Germany and in Austria, and the pan takes its name from it. The sausage goes in first so that the fat it renders is what the cabbage cooks in, and the last few minutes happen with the lid off, which is where the browned edges come from. Two tablespoons of vinegar at the end keep it from sitting heavy.

Lo Mein with noodles, oyster sauce and soy sauce — China recipe

🇨🇳ChinaMedium

Cereal and Pasta Dishes

Lo Mein

Lo mein is a Chinese dish of soft egg noodles stir-fried with vegetables and protein in a glossy, savory sauce built on oyster sauce, light and dark soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, and sesame oil. Lo mein (捞面) translates from Cantonese as 'stirred noodles' — the name describes the cooking method, a scooping, tossing motion that coats every strand. Unlike chow mein, where the noodles are fried until crispy, lo mein noodles stay soft and slippery, coated in a thick, glossy sauce. The dark soy sauce is the detail that gives the dish its characteristic deep mahogany color; without it the dish looks pale. The sauce is premixed before the wok goes on — lo mein moves fast.
