Date Night in Kathmandu
| Description | Momo (a colloquial form of the Tibetan word 'mog mog') is a type of filled dumpling, originally from Tibet but now a delicay in Nepal - it is believed that Nepali merchants brought the recipe back home with them after travelling to Tibet to trade. Momos are almost always served with a momo achar (or pickle) made from tomatoes, toasted sesame and timut pepper - a spice reminiscent of Sichuan pepper and used in most Nepali cooking. For the main event we have a Nepali staple, dal bhat or dal with rice which is served at every meal including breakfast! Finally we’ve got chiya, tea brewed with evaporated milk and lots of spices served with a baked version of Nepali biscuits known as khajuri. |

A delicious meal from beginning to end. Our first of a 6 month membership and what a start! #Spicerysport
All the spices :)
Looks like a delicious meal - happy spicing!
It was a choice between Kathmandu and another Date Night for an early Valentine's Day meal... I read about the Momos and that swung it for me - did not disappoint! Delicious, and so easy to make. They have taught me a new cooking method, a sort of fried/steamed combo. Despite my wife's love of mixed spice (Khajuri) and Evaporated Milk (Chiya) the Momos stole the show. Nepal added to the list places to visit! Excellent Date Night
Wow, this looks fantastic - those magnificent momos are really waving the flag for this wonderful meal!
I really enjoyed this meal. The starter dumplings were really delicious. I really enjoyed the main curry and the biscuits were really lovely too. Turns out I’m not a fan of Chai Tea though
We're so glad to hear how much you enjoyed (most of!) the elements of this meal! Happy spicing!
This took a while to cook but was so flavoursome. This was a brilliant Date Night
Glad you enjoyed this delicious Date Night meal, happy spicing!
Two years ago we were in Nepal, where we ate lentil stew and chicken curry every night on the trail, and momos in Kathmandu as our first meal. This was pretty close! The momos in particular were surprisingly easy and absolutely delicious
Brilliant- it's great to hear this recipe reminded you of your travels! It looks like you made some marvellous momos!
A truly different, spectacularly tasty feast...without the need for a passport!
YUM everything looks delicious- we wish we could try some of those marvellous momos!
The momos were fantastic and easy to make. Would love more Nepalese recipes from the spicery.
This looks like a lovely meal for a warm evening! The momos look great- so glad you enjoyed the recipe- we'll pass your request on to our development chefs!
Another fabulous date night. The momos and dhal were particular highlights
This looks fantastic, great job shaping the momos they're perfect!
Mildly spicy, and bursting with interesting flavours, Kathmandu was a triumph!
Delicious! Thanks for posting!
