Nepalese food

Post by AussiePam »

I went to dinner at a Nepalese restaurant called Mustang on Saturday! Not sure whether our Forum Gardener of that name has anything to do with Nepal or vice versa.. but who knows??

The food was great! And the owners and wait staff were all Nepalese and chatted happily to us.

Nepalese cuisine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

We had:

Momo: This stuffed dumpling is a very popular dish in Nepal. This dish is an example of Tibetian influence in Nepalese cuisine. It is served with a special sauce made from fresh grilled tomato & spiced roasted sesame seeds

Aloo Chop

Shallow fried golden potato cakes, coated with chickpeas flour. Served with mint sauce

Everest Chicken

Diced chicken thigh fillets simmered in mushroom sauce and Nepalese spices

Pumpkin Kwaa

Spiced pumpkin and chana daal cooked with onion and tomatoes

And a dessert to die for - like a very creamy Indian kulfi without the coriander.



Has anyone else indulged similarly????

No AussiePam, has nothing to do with me. :p

Saturday at this Mustang's would serve you food off the BBQ. Filet mignon, grilled veggies and all kinds of sides to go with it, with your choice of beverage. ;)

Nepalese food sounds interesting and something I would try though. :)

Grin. I see I should have named this thread not Nepalese Food, but Not Nepalese Food.

Oh well... no harm done. Enjoy the grits, barbies, etc etc...

Hi Pam:-6



I am so sorry that your thread was soooo taken off topic:( ~sigh~



I'm not an adventurous eater, but this place sounds devine. I really love the menu.



How was the atmosphere of the place?

The dinner sounds wonderful. I'd like to try to make a few of the items. I'll see if I can Google some recipes. I didn't recognize kwaa, chana & kulfi. What did they taste like?

Sounds delicious! I love Asian food!

The Kingdom of Mustang is a principality near the Nepal/Tibet border... it's quite a trip if you ever get the opportunity to visit. :D
