Spice in Nepal
|
|
There are different types of Nepali food depending on
the region the kind of food belongs to but most Nepali s have Dal
(lentil soup), Bhat (steamed rice) and Tarkari (curried vegetables). It
is often accompanied by aachar (pickles). Curried meat is popular, but
since meat is expensive people save it for special occasions. Tibetan
influences increase as you go north and perenial favorites like momo s
(steamed or fried dumplings stuffed with meat), are widely available. As
we move towars the south Indian influences are seen in the food. Most
Nepalese do not use cutlery to eat but use their right hand.
