Plov, manti, shurpa, shashlik, lagman, samsa are Uzbek dishes which smell too good so that one cant resist to taste all those dishes.Many Uzbek recipes have centuries-old history, and the process of preparing food is accompanied with various rituals. At their fertile valleys, Uzbek people raise their own vegetables, fruits and cereals.Needless to say Uzbek foods are influenced with some culinary traditions of Turkic, Kazakh, Uigur, Tajik, Tatar, Mongolian and other neighboring nations, settled on the territory of Central Asia.Pastry and sour-milk dishes take an important place in Uzbek food. The national Uzbek food is prepared with wide use of meat: mutton, beef and horse meat. As much as like most of the Asian countries, each regions of this country cook in their own way.In the north, people serve food with plov, roasted meat, pastry and lepeshka (bread). On the south people prepare wide variety of complicated dishes of rice and vegetables and also make excellent desserts. Uzbeks generally eat by hand and sit at the floor or at the low table aka dastarkhan. Bread is sacred by Uzbek people. By a tradition, when someone leaves the house, he should bite off a small piece of bread, which will be kept until he comes back and eat it. Uzbek bread are called generally as non or lepeshka, which is round,flat and baked in clay oven.There are two types of lepeshkas aka Uzbek breads : plain (obi-non) and festival one (patir). Traditionally Uzbek bread is never cut with knife. Bread is broken into pieces by hand and placed on the table near each place setting. Do not place Uzbek bread upside down,as its consider as disrespect. Uzbek people consider bread to be greatly respected.

The key to dimlama rests in the layering. First of all, lamb is browned, then onions are added in the mix. One they submit to browning, the remaining vegetables are layered (and, once they're added, you never stir the pot!). The final layer is always cabbage, which helps seal in the moisture.

We previously wrote about Uzbek food and in this post, we’ll share the traditional samsa recipe; one of the most popular snacks in Central Asia
I can't tell where this recipe is originated from, Russians, Italians or French, but surely it is very famous sweet in Uzbekistan. I love it's puffiness and lightness. I use different fillings for it, today's is custard chocolate cream. Usually I like to use my favorite - sweet condensed milk beat with sour cream. If you like you can use any other your favorite filling. You will get 30 small or 15 big pastries from this recipe. 240 ml or 1 cup of water 115 grams of butter pinch of salt 1 full cup of plain flour 3-4 eggs For cream: 1 cup of milk 2 eggs 2 tbsp of plain flour 2 tbsp of unsweetened cocoa 200 gram of sugar 50 grams of butter Cut butter in small pieces, add in water and put on a medium heat, when it comes to boil add in salt and flour. Mix vigorously until dough becomes a mass that pulls away from the sides of the pot and will form a nice dough ball. Take from heat and let it cool down. Blend in eggs one by one in to the dough, mixing vigorously each time until dough will absorb the egg. If your eggs are small use 4 eggs, if they are big then use 3. The dough must be thick and must not be runny. Use pastry bag or just a spoon and set small balls on your baking sheet. I use teaspoon for making small ones and a pastry bag for bigger ones. Bake in preheated oven on 200 C for 10 min then reduce to 180C and bake for 25-30 min, or until it is nice golden in color. Don't open your oven for the first 20 min or your pastry will set down. For filling: Beat eggs and sugar until eggs are pale in color and then add in half a cup of milk, beat again for 1 min. Add in 2 tbsp of flour and beat until smooth. Add in the rest half of the milk, beat for 2 min. Set your heat on high and bring mixture to boil, continuously stirring. When it comes to boil, lower the heat and cook stirring until mixture is thick enough, it mustn't run from the spoon. But don't over cook! Take from the heat, pour it in to another bowl and let it cool. Beat in 50 grams of butter. If you want to make chocolate cream, add in chocolate along with flour. Slightly cut up each pastry and fill with cream or use your pastry bag for that purpose. Sprinkle with icing sugar and just enjoy this mouth melting pastry! Yoqimli ishtaha!
