Lamb is first slow cooked in curry with onions and potatoes before it is removed, grilled, and sealed with a spicy chili mix. It is then transferred back into the curry and cooked a bit more. It is served with rice and roti.

It's basically fried rice, seasoned with turmeric and cumin.

Those are a small bite of Nepalese food. Do you think you might want to try some of these? If so, why?

ReplyDeleteNice blog Henry, I really liked how you added some voice to your article at the beginning and your own opinions about the food when you described it. I would want to try some of those foods because they seem interesting and yummy and the Thukpa looks amazing. I would probably like Pulao the most because I've ate fried rice before. Finally, I would recommend Rory's blog about food in Nepal because there are some other foods in there and it also has descriptions of the foods.
