Joys Of Nepalese Cooking

Nepal is a country with different geographic regions. As such the food, especially the way it is prepared, varies from region to region. On account of the great impact of Indian and Tibetan foods as they have on Nepalese food, it is almost impossible to single out or compartmentalize the Nepalese style of cooking which does not border on one or the other of the two. Owing to the increased facilities in transportation several kinds of vegetables and fruits grown in the Terai have of late become easily available in the valleys and the Himalayan region. Human migration has also played an important role in forming or temporizing one's food habits. So the authoresses can not do full justice to the scope of this book without mentioning some recipes that are borrowed from other countries but are well adopted by the Nepalese people.
