Chinese halal cuisine (清真菜) generally refers to the cuisines of Chinese Muslim groups like the Hui (Han Chinese Muslims), Bonan, Dongxiang, Salar and Uyghurs of China, as well as the Dungans of Central Asia and the Panthays/Chin Haws of Myanmar/Thailand/Laos.
Hui cuisine (回族菜) refers more specifically to the cuisine and culinary traditions of the Hui ethnic group from Ningxia, Gansu, and some regions of Xinjiang.
It’s known for its strong emphasis on beef, lamb, spices (especially cumin), and wheat-based dishes like noodles and bread, featuring hearty dishes like beef noodle soup and spiced kebabs, blending Chinese flavors with Central and West Asian influences. 🍜🐑🫚🥙
