Mongolian Cuisine | Mavimore

Meat is the main food source in Mongolian cuisine. In the country where sheep meat is consumed the most, other meat options are goat, horse, camel and Tibetan ox. You cannot easily come across green vegetables in the country’s cuisine, where rice, flour, potatoes and onions are widely used. In Mongolian cuisine, the traditional dish means boiled mutton. Mutton is also mixed into many dishes such as rice, pasta and noodles. The country’s popular summer dish is horhog. In addition to this dish, in which goat meat, potatoes and onions are cooked over low heat, another traditional dish of the country’s cuisine, buuz, resembles manti. This dish, cooked using mutton, is consumed especially during festivals. Another festival food, huushuur, is a type of pancake made from mutton. Boodog, on the other hand, is made from the bones and throat of a goat or sheep. Mongolian vodka is one of the traditional drinks of the country, where Chinese and Korean beer varieties are quite common. Another traditional drink is tea with milk and salt, called suutei tsai. The minimum age for alcohol consumption in the country is 21. When you go to restaurants, you are expected to leave a tip of approximately 10 percent.
