A week ago, my family had an old friend come to stay. Her name is Aurelia, and when she was a child she came to stay with my family every year as an exchange student from France, in the hope that we would teach her some English! It’s a tradition my family has had for generations, her father staying with my grandparents when he was a child too!
I think it’s fair to say that in the time she’s spent with us she has taught us just as much as we’ve taught her!
When she came to stay this time round, she decided to teach me a new type of food – Nepalese. She visited Nepal for a couple of months and lived with a number of families eating their traditional food.
Below is our interpretation of the dishes she ate on her travel – as authentic as they can possibly be.
So here is Nepalese Curried Vegetables with Lentil and Home-made Chapathis! (aka chapattis, chapatis).
Chapathis are my new favourite thing to cook! SO quick and easy, and good fun to make! (Though do not set your tea-towel on fire as I did!!!!!)
