Dal Bhat

This is the staple food in Nepal. Rice (Dal), lentils (Bhat). The lentils were usually seasoned with spices such as coriander, ginger, chili powder, and tumeric. On the side are "tarkari" - vegetables - such as curried potatoes and pickled tomatoes. A reward for climbing the 3,500 stone steps before lunch was that the tea house in Ulleri served what was hands down the best Dal Bhat I ate in Nepal.
