Bantan
Mongolian mutton soup thickened with small flour lumps and spring onion.

About Bantan
All Mongolian Recipes presents bantan as a Mongolian soup with meat and small flour lumps. This version follows the source’s usual mutton choice, with spring onion and seasoning added to the soup.
The mutton provides the savoury base, while spring onion brings a fresh aromatic note. Salt and the recipe’s unspecified spices season the meat-and-flour combination.
The broth thickens around small flour lumps that remain visible in the finished soup. These soft pieces give bantan its characteristic textured consistency rather than a smooth, blended appearance.
