Make this Kazakh dish and taste how good it is — your family will love it too! It's a really tasty, filling meal. Of course, horse meat isn't easy to find everywhere and you may have to hunt for it, though it's worth the trouble. But you can swap in any other meat instead. Give it a try!

    1. Rinse the meat, put it in a pot, cover with cold water, bring to a boil, and skim off the foam. 2. Add salt, pepper, the bay leaves, and 2 whole peeled onions to the broth. 3. Cook the meat for 20 minutes over medium heat, then lower the heat and simmer it for another 1.5–2 hours over moderate heat. 4. Peel the potatoes and add them whole to the boiling broth (cut any large ones into pieces), then cook everything together for another 15–20 minutes. 5. Make the noodle dough by combining the water, salt, egg, and flour. It should be like pasta dough — stiff but still elastic. 6. Peel the remaining onion and slice it into rings, pour boiling broth over it, and let it sit for 10 minutes. 7. Divide the dough in two, roll each half into a sheet, and drop the whole sheets into the broth. 8. Cook for 8–10 minutes, then transfer to a platter. You can leave the noodle sheets whole or cut them into pieces. 9. Arrange the potatoes around the edge of the platter and pile the meat in the center. Top with the broth-steeped onion and chopped fresh herbs. Enjoy!
