This popular Lamb Pilaf dish is originated from Northwestern China, Xinjiang. It is also very similar to Mutton Biryani. Xinjiang is famous for its extraordinary natural landscapes and various ethnic customs. Food here is heavily influenced by Muslim cuisine and has a much more Central Asian flavor than anywhere else in China.
