Lagman (Hand-Pulled Noodle Soup)

Method

1. 1

   Make a supple dough (flour, water, salt); rest 1 hour, oil it, and rest again.

2. 2

   Roll ropes, oil them, and pull-swing each into long noodles; boil 3 minutes.

   💡 Store-bought thick noodles are an honest fallback; the stew forgives.

3. 3

   Fry the meat with cumin; add vegetables in order of toughness and fry hard.

4. 4

   Add water just to cover and simmer 20 minutes into a loose stew.

5. 5

   Noodles in the bowl, vaja over the top, vinegar and chili on the table.
