About Khuushuur
Khuushuur is a popular dish in Mongolian cuisine, known for its savory, handheld appeal. These fried dumplings are traditionally filled with minced meat, often lamb or beef, mixed with onion, garlic, salt, and sometimes spices for added flavor. The dough, made from flour and water, is rolled thin, folded over the filling, and pan-fried until golden and crispy. While Khuushuur is rich in protein thanks to the meat, it is also high in fat due to the frying process, making it a calorie-dense dish. The simplicity of ingredients can provide essential nutrients, but moderation is key, as the frying oil can add extra saturated fats. Enjoyed either as street food or during traditional Mongolian celebrations, Khuushuur offers a hearty and flavorful taste of Mongolian heritage. Pairing it with fresh vegetables can balance its richness for a more nutritious meal.
