Instructions

  1. Mix the flour and salt, then gradually add the warm water until you get a soft, smooth dough. Knead for 10 minutes, cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
  2. Put the lamb, the whole carrot and the water in a large pot, bring to a boil, skim, then simmer for 1 hour 30 minutes until the meat is tender.
  3. Meanwhile, finely slice the onions and fry them in the oil until golden.
  4. Roll the dough very thin and cut it into long fine strips, like spaghetti.
  5. Remove the meat and carrot from the broth, then cook the noodle strips in the simmering broth for 5 to 7 minutes.
  6. Drain the noodles, toss them with the fried onions and pieces of shredded meat.
  7. Arrange in a deep dish, moisten with a little hot broth and garnish with fresh dill.

Variations and tips

Quick version. Use store-bought spaghetti instead of homemade dough and cook it in the boiling broth.
