Lanzhou-style beef noodle soup
Lanzhou-style beef noodle soup is a traditional Chinese dish that originates from the city of Lanzhou in northwestern China. It typically consists of hand-pulled noodles made from wheat flour, thinly sliced beef, broth, and various seasonings such as green onions, garlic, ginger, and chili oil.
