Nepal

Dal-bhat-tarkari is eaten throughout Nepal. Dal is a soup made of lentils and spices, served over boiled grain, bhat—usually rice but sometimes another grain - and a vegetable curry, tarkari. Condiments are usually small amounts of spicy pickle which can be fresh or fermented, (mainly of dried spinach) and radish, and of which there are a considerable number of varieties. Other accompaniments may be sliced lemon or lime with fresh green chilli and a fried papad (thin, crisp disc-shaped food). Much of the cuisine is variations on Asian themes. Momo is a Nepalese style dumpling filled with minced meat in a flour dough, given different shapes and then cooked by steaming. Special foods such as sel roti, finni roti and patre are eaten during festivals such as Tihar. Sel roti is a traditional Nepali homemade ring-shaped rice bread which is sweet to taste.
