Oats noodles

　　Oats noodles are a common type of noodle dish in Inner Mongolia. They are made by grinding roasted oats into flour, then mixing the flour with boiling water to form dough. The dough is cut into strips and steamed. These noodles can be served cold (tossed with stir-fried eggplant, shredded cucumber, or shredded radish), or with heated toppings (such as lamb mince with mushrooms), offering a delicious flavor. Varieties include pushed nests (commonly known as "kǎolǎolǎo"), pinched fish, and pressed hele noodles.
