History and origin 

Mongolian cuisine is originated from Mongolia, a country that shares borders with China and Russia. Mongolian cuisine, though it has its own unique identity, is a cuisine that has been influenced by the Chinese and Russian cuisine. It is  largely based on meat, dairy products and animal fats. Mongolian cooking was first introduced in China in the 13th century. The Mongolian way of cooking is quite simple and usually consists of mutton or beef cut into thin slices and quickly roasted on the grill. Later the addition of fresh vegetables and spices was innovated by the Chinese.
