Category:Mongolian Recipes

The Mongolian cuisine is not as diverse as the other cuisines of the world are. The hard climatic conditions determined the possibility to crop only a few types of vegetables and plants and also to grow only a few types of animals. Therefore, most of the Mongolian traditional dishes are based on meat, and especially on mutton, horse meat and marmot. The Mongolian cuisine distinguishes, though, through its exotic dishes, based on the meats mentioned above and also through its unique beverages, that range from mare milk to interesting types of salty teas. The cooking style of the Mongolians, although it is a poor one, established a few dishes for each of the main courses. Hence, the Mongolian cuisine features recipes for appetizers, meat dishes, soups, salads and even desserts.
