作法
- 羊絞肉與肝臟丁、米、洋蔥末、蒜末、孜然、胡椒、鹽、喀什米爾辣椒粉、芫荽粉與羊脂丁混合。朝同一方向攪打。
- 腸衣套上灌香腸器，將餡料填入，留些空間（米會在煮的過程中膨脹）—大約灌至 2/3 滿。
- 每 30 公分綁成一段。用針戳幾個小洞讓蒸氣排出。
- 水加鹽煮至微滾（不要大滾；會撐破腸衣）。Asip 放入水中半掩鍋蓋煮 50 至 60 分鐘。
- 撈起置於網架上瀝乾，略放涼。
- 切成 1 公分厚圓片，溫熱享用。Asip 也適合隔天作為冷食點心。

文化背景
Asip 是哈薩克的屠宰後香腸—羊隻宰殺當天就會做，以利用腸衣、肝臟與其他易腐部位。這道菜與秋季宰牲（Sogym）密不可分，當時哈薩克家族會聚集屠宰動物、準備過冬食物。Asip 耐攜帶；哈薩克游牧者會帶著它長途旅行。現代哈薩克肉販在阿拉木圖市集販售現成 Asip。
