Fried Mianfeizi

If you often read my blog, you know that Mianfeizi and Mifeizi are unique food in Xinjiang. It is said that Mianfeizi originated in Yili. It has a history of 30 to 40 years as a delicacy in Xinjiang. Before the 1970s, every household hold rationed food. Uyghur families generally have a lot of children, and many families generally don’t have enough to eat. The Uyghur aunt took the lamb lungs that were thrown away before to wash clean in the water. At the beginning, because of inexperience, the lungs of the sheep can not be washed white. If the washing is not white, it means that the blood has not been washed out. Later, they cut the two thick blood vessels connecting the heart and lungs in the upper lungs, and then washed the lungs white. The clever Uyghur aunt added sheep lungs and gluten as ingredients, and added many kinds of seasonings to make a unique delicious dish, Mianfeizi. Later, it slowly spread to all parts of Xinjiang, ranging from specialty restaurants to night markets, and it became the characteristic delicious food.

Mianfeizi has become a unique food to Xinjiang. Visitors from the mainland must try it. After tasting, they all praised its unique flavor. In the past, there used to be in soup. Now many halal restaurants have fried Mianfeizi, adding seasonings and side dishes.
