Method

  1. 1 Knead the flour with a little water until it forms a firm dough, then let it rest for 1 hour. A soft dough will not hold its shape when trimmed.
  2. 2 Support the dough on your forearm and use a thin knife to cut straight strips down into the boiling water; the uneven thickness of the strips is characteristic of a flat-cut knife.
  3. 3 Boil for 2 minutes, then remove and rinse with cold water to make the noodles firm.
  4. 4 Sauté sliced lamb with garlic, dried chili peppers, and cumin seeds for 4 minutes over high heat.
  5. 5 Add the onions, bell peppers, and noodles to the pan and stir-fry for 3 minutes with soy sauce, then sprinkle with chopped scallions.
