Tamerlane and a Wave of Dumplings


So my old teacher, the saintly, scholarly Tamerlane the Hero King invites me to his home to visit everytime I’m in the vicinity. On this most recent trip, we all sat around the kitchen (a pleasent externality of having a cold house) and cooked together.

On the menu was Kyrgyz duymplings called Monty. They are made of shredded sheep meat and shredded sheep fat with bits of potato and onion. The way they are bound together is very important.
