Lamb chops with rice
Overview
Polo, called polo in Uyghur, is a favorite meal of people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang. In the past, it was often eaten with clean hands, so it is called pilaf in Chinese. In traditional Chinese medicine, eating rice has some medicinal value and is considered to be able to warm the stomach, warm the kidneys, replenish qi and blood, warm the body and replenish deficiency. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that mutton is sweet in taste and warm in nature, and has the effects of warming the middle and replenishing qi, warming the stomach and aiding digestion. For symptoms caused by body cold, spleen and stomach deficiency, and insufficient qi and blood, eating mutton chops and rice with rice has an auxiliary therapeutic effect. In addition, mutton chops also have a significant nourishing effect, especially for people with weak constitution, poor spleen and stomach function, weak qi and blood, and postpartum physical weakness. No matter how much you say, it is secondary, eating is the most important 😂

It is best to cut the mutton chops into sections and soak them in water for half an hour, clean them and blanch them. (You can also not blanch it, stir-fry it with salt and Sichuan peppercorns, wait for it to cool and rub the lamb chops evenly for half an hour, then clean them).

Then clean and drain the water.
-
Pour an appropriate amount of peanut oil into the wok, add onions and stir-fry until fragrant.
-
Pour in the lamb chops and stir-fry, add cooking wine and an appropriate amount of salt.

Add the carrot sticks and stir-fry for a while, then pour water over the lamb chops and then add two finger-high water and simmer for about 30 minutes. Then spread the soaked rice and diced potatoes on the lamb chops without turning the lamb chops. Then simmer over low heat until the rice is almost cooked. Pour in the raisins and use chopsticks🥢 to poke a few more holes in the rice to allow it to vent more air and make it easier to cook. It takes about 10-12 minutes.
