About Buuz

Buuz are Mongolian steamed dumplings. All Mongolian Recipes identifies mutton as the traditional filling and the round pouch as the most traditional shape; both are selected for this profile.

Minced mutton combines with onion and garlic, while salt, pepper and caraway provide seasoning. The flour-and-water wrapper has no added salt in this published version, keeping the meat filling central.

The round dumplings have gathered tops with a small opening at the centre. The source describes a glossy finish and presents them as a complete meal, with ketchup as an optional condiment.
