Friday night some of my English students came over for some Christmas cookie decorating. After cookies, cards and Scrabble, they asked if they could make dinner.
I'm always up for our friends teaching us how to make Mongolian food, so Holli and I readily agreed.
Tevna, Od, Jawa and Brdne took over our kitchen to make a Mongolian soup (phonetically spelled "bansh") that is made up of ьууз (dumplings filled with meat, onions and garlic), ground beef boiled in water to make the broth, along with some potatoes, onions and salt.
They had fun laughing at my calling the dumplings we made "baby ьууз," for they are smaller versions of the normal ьууз that are a staple Mongolian food. Thankfully the baby ьууз are much easier to fold than their "grown-up" version :- )
