Laghman (Uyghur: لەغمەن, leghmen, ләғмән; Kazakh: лағман, lağman; Uzbek: lagʻmon; Tajik: лағмон, lağmon; Kyrgyz: лагман, lagman) is a dish of meat, vegetables and pulled noodles from Uyghur cuisine and Central Asian cuisine. In Chinese, the noodle is known as latiaozi (Chinese: 拉条子) or bànmiàn (Chinese: 拌面).
As native Turkic words do not begin with the letter 'L', läghmän is a loanword from the Chinese lamian and appears to be an adaptation of Northern Chinese noodle dishes, although its taste and preparation are distinctly Uyghur. It is also a traditional dish of the Hui or Dungan people who call the dish bànmiàn.
It is especially popular in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, where it is considered a national dish of the local Uyghur and Dungan (Hui) ethnic minorities. It is also popular in Russia, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Northeastern Afghanistan, where chickpeas are added to it and parts of Northern Pakistan. The Crimean Tatar cuisine also adopted lagman from the Uzbek culture.
