新疆盛產牛(niu)羊(yang),是我國主要畜牧業基地之一(yi)。信(xin)仰伊斯蘭教的(de)民(min)族(zu)以食牛(niu)羊(yang)肉為主。牛(niu)羊(yang)肉風(feng)味小吃(chi)名類繁多自不待(dai)言(yan),就是以羊(yang)的(de)內臟(zang)作(zuo)(zuo)原(yuan)料,也能烹制出鮮香異(yi)常的(de)美味來。米腸(chang)子(zi)與(yu)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)肺(fei)子(zi)便是其中的(de)代(dai)表(biao)。制作(zuo)(zuo)米腸(chang)子(zi)和(he)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)肺(fei)子(zi),一(yi)般(ban)都在(zai)宰(zai)羊(yang)之后(hou),細心地將(jiang)羊(yang)內臟(zang)完(wan)整(zheng)地取(qu)出,用(yong)(yong)清(qing)(qing)水(shui)灌洗(xi)羊(yang)肺(fei)至白凈(jing)無色,羊(yang)腸(chang)翻洗(xi)干(gan)凈(jing)備用(yong)(yong)。將(jiang)羊(yang)肝、心和(he)少(shao)量(liang)腸(chang)油(you)切(qie)成(cheng)(cheng)小粒,加適量(liang)胡(hu)椒(jiao)(jiao)粉(fen)、孜然(ran)粉(fen)、精(jing)鹽與(yu)洗(xi)凈(jing)的(de)大米拌和(he)均勻作(zuo)(zuo)餡,填入(ru)(ru)羊(yang)腸(chang)內。再將(jiang)白面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)洗(xi)出面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)筋,待(dai)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)水(shui)澄(cheng)清(qing)(qing)后(hou),潷去大量(liang)清(qing)(qing)水(shui),留(liu)少(shao)量(liang)清(qing)(qing)水(shui)攪動(dong)成(cheng)(cheng)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)漿,再取(qu)小肚(du)套在(zai)肺(fei)氣管上,用(yong)(yong)線縫接,然(ran)后(hou)把面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)漿逐勺舀出倒入(ru)(ru)小肚(du),擠壓入(ru)(ru)肺(fei)葉(xie)。再將(jiang)以少(shao)許精(jing)鹽、清(qing)(qing)油(you)、孜然(ran)粉(fen)、辣椒(jiao)(jiao)粉(fen)調好(hao)的(de)水(shui)汁用(yong)(yong)上述(shu)辦法擠壓入(ru)(ru)肺(fei)葉(xie)。然(ran)后(hou)去小肚(du),用(yong)(yong)繩扎緊(jin)氣管封口。再把米腸(chang)子(zi)、面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)肺(fei)子(zi)、洗(xi)凈(jing)的(de)羊(yang)肚(du)和(he)卷有少(shao)許辣椒(jiao)(jiao)粉(fen)用(yong)(yong)繩扎的(de)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)筋入(ru)(ru)鍋煮。煮時還(huan)須在(zai)腸(chang)子(zi)中的(de)大米半熟時,用(yong)(yong)釬子(zi)遍扎腸(chang)壁,使(shi)之放氣放水(shui),以防腸(chang)壁脹破(po)。熟后(hou)取(qu)出,稍(shao)涼切(qie)片,混合(he)食用(yong)(yong)。
