The rou jia mo originated in the Shaanxi province of China, and is now eaten all over the country. It's typically prepared and eaten on the street. The dough for the bun, or mo, consists of a simple mixture of wheat flour, water and maybe yeast. Of course recipes may vary, but this basic equation makes for a chewy and subtle pillow for the delicious filling. While the mo is traditionally baked in a clay oven, today it's often fried in a pan. They may look a little like Chinese steamed buns or baos, but the dough for those are, of course, steamed, not baked or fried.

肉夹馍起源于中国陕西省，如今已遍布全国，是代表性的街头小吃。生面团做成的“馍”，就是简单的由小麦粉，水，可能还有酵母做成的。当然啦，配方不尽相同，但是基本做法都差不多，咬一口软糯可口，填充（肉）唇齿留香。而传统的做法，馍是在土灶里烘焙而成，如今则常常放在平底锅里烙制而成。可能看上去会比较像中国的馒头或是包子，但是那些是蒸的，不是烤的或炸的。

The meat filling might consist of chopped pork, beef, lamb or chicken that has been stewed with a variety of spices, like ginger, cloves, coriander and star anise. You might also find herbs like cilantro or greens like lettuce garnishing the sandwich.

夹杂里面的肉会由切碎的猪肉、牛肉、羊肉或是鸡肉填充，由文火慢炖，加入多种调味料：如姜、丁香、香菜和八角。你可能会发现三明治里有很像香菜的薄荷叶，或是像生菜这样的绿色蔬菜做配菜。
