Nepalese Cookbook

Friday, 26 February 2010

It has been a long time since I've written here... I do apologise! It was an exciting weekend of bike riding over the West Gate bridge, cycling with the Banyule Bug and helping out at the Sustainable Living Festival last weekend, and of course work has been rather interesting of late... but no more excuses! I'm writing to update you all on the progress of the Nepalese Recipe Book!

After weeks of cooking up a storm in the kitchen we've honed in on a few winning recipes including (in no particular order):

• Daal Bhaat
• Chickpea, Spinach and Tomato Curry
• Asparagus Bhutuwa
• Lamb Quantee (Lamb with bean sprouts)
• Paratha with Vegetables
• Lamb Sekuwa
• Gajar ko Halwa (Carrot Pudding)
• Mahendranagar Samosas
• Vegetable Pulao
• Tarkari (Mixed vegetables)
• Creamy Coconut, Cauliflower and Lentil Curry
• Quick and Easy Potato and Zucchini
• Chicken, Broccoli and Tomato Curry
• Tibetan Momos
• Beans and bamboo shoot curry
• Lamb Curry
• Shikarni (Apple, Cinnamon and Honey yoghurt)
• Kheer (Rice Pudding)
• Banana Chiya Bread
• Chiya (Spiced Tea)

Unfortunately I'm still missing some good recipes for chow mein, thukpa, laddu and achar... Not to mention a guide to hosting your very own Nepalese Dinner Party! If you have some suggestions, know of anything vital that I've missed or can help me convince G to call his mum for help please let me know :-)
