What You’ll Experience

1

Nomdor Somsa Osh Markazi

“Nomdor somsa” is a popular style of Uzbek somsa, or savory pastry, known for its rich, juicy filling, often made with finely minced meat (lamb or beef) mixed with onions and a blend of spices. What makes it unique is the layering of dough, creating a crisp and flaky exterior. Somsas are traditionally cooked in a tandoor oven, which gives them a distinct flavor and crispy texture. In Uzbekistan, somsas are enjoyed as street food and at home, with many regional variations. “Nomdor” may refer to a reputable or well-known style, emphasizing its quality.

MANDU - Hadra

Manti are a beloved traditional dish across Central Asia, including Uzbekistan. These are large dumplings typically filled with minced lamb or beef, onions, and sometimes pumpkin or potato. What sets them apart is their size (larger than many dumplings) and the steaming method used to cook them, usually in a multi-layered steamer called a mantovarka. The dough is rolled thin and shaped around the filling, often leaving a small opening at the top. Manti are served with sour cream, yogurt, or a simple vinegar and pepper sauce, and garnished with fresh herbs. Their hearty filling and flavorful spices make manti a comforting and popular dish, especially in winter.
