Miss. Delicious: The Best Lamb Stew in Town... 秋日最佳食品推荐..
Hello Steemit friends! These few days I've been busy with the fashion blogs, but today, I'm sharing another food extravaganza! As we wave goodbye to summer and welcome the Autumn brisk, i'd like to introduce everyone to an Autumn specialty. Lets go inside and take a look ^▽^ This is one of Xi'an's restaurants specialising in Northwest Chinese cuisine, inside it is features paintings from Northern Shaanxi province.  If you like eating meat, then this place is Heaven^^ Hengshan Ironpot Lamb Stew^v^ Main point! Right now is the Chinese National Day holidays. Usually people will spend some quality time with their families and one of the prime activities is having a nice meal together either at home or at a nice restaurant. I went with my family for dinner at this restaurant and we booked a private room so we can enjoy the meal with just our family. When booking, we also ordered their specialty dish, the Iron pot lamb stew. Because there were quite a few of us, we asked for a kilograms worth which was prepared prior to our arrival. You must have been thinking how large that iron pot is and what's cooking inside it? It's none other than the Hengshan iron pot lamb stew. Hengshan is situated in the northern part of the Shaanxi province and they are well known across China for their delicious lamb meat.
  Just before eating, some scallion is added to the mix. I was curious as to how the dish smelled so nice, I asked the waiter what were the ingredients? It turns out it was ginger, dried chilli peppers, onions, sichuan peppers, salt and finally chill pepper noodles all added together into the hot stew. I tasted my first bite of the Lamb meat and my first impression was truly how tender the meat was and even better, the usual smell of lamb wasn't there! Even though quite a bit of Chill and spices were added, the lamb tasted only mildly spicy and full of flavour. I couldn't stop eating it ^ε^  Some people like to eat this Lamb meat with raw garlic, it's supposed to be fragrant and at the same time healthy. I was hesitant on eating raw garlic as I always thought it should be cooked, but I decided to have a try anyway and was glad that I did! It brought out the flavour of the lamb even more! Autumn is the perfect time to have Iron pot Lamb Stew because it is served piping hot. Eating it will make you feel immediately warm and also helps you add some healthy fats to your diet in preparation for a cold winter ^^ Self-Mixed Alcohol
Because today's dinner was also a birthday celebration, one of my uncles prepared his own alcoholic mix of mulberry juice and Chinese white spirits to share with everybody. It looks like red wine but I can assure you it tastes nothing like it! Lets have a toast! Are we just eating the Iron pot lamb stew? Don't worry, there's plenty of supplementary side dishes too! ^^First and foremost, the cold dishes
These are made with noodles, they look kind of weird but taste really good ?
