Manti as comfort food — exactly what I needed

Some dishes exist to comfort and Manti is absolutely in that category. The deeply savoury from lamb fat quality works on something almost primal — you feel the warmth of it immediately. yellow carrots does work that no substitute can replicate.

plov rice pilaf is considered the cornerstone of Uzbek hospitality and is cooked by men for important occasions. There's something about the a Tashkent restaurant context that reinforces the comfort effect. black tea with sugar alongside is the traditional way and it makes complete sense. I come back to this dish when I need something dependable and restorative.
