Enoy Authentic Nepali cuisine at Club Mahindra Gangtok Resort

If you’re planning a trip to Gangtok, one of most fulfilling things to do in Gangtok is to feast on a traditional Nepali dinner, prepared using fresh local ingredients by skilled chefs at Club Mahindra Gangtok.

Nepalese cuisine is an unexplored culinary gem, common to the hilly regions of the north-east and of course the neighbouring country, Nepal. The cool and natural environment plays a major role in the food preparations. Fermenting and/or drying of food items are a common way of preserving food, since they can be stored for long periods of time and used when required. But this is not just about improving the shelf life, it also intensifies the flavour so that even a little bit, goes a long way towards making your Nepali dinner a meal that will stay etched in your memories.

The Nepali dinner menu features food such as Sel Roti, a traditional rice flour sweet donut that is a must in all Nepalese festivities, Choila, aged and dried meat in a spicy marinade that will give your taste buds a jolt of flavour, Mula rah kukhura ko jhol, a light chicken curry with radish and Khassi ko pakku, slow cooked, tender, juicy mutton that falls apart at the lightest touch, generally made in big batches for guests.

For vegetarians there’s Chau ko sabzi or oyster mushrooms sautéed with onions and tomatoes, Gundruk ko jhol, a tangy broth made with fermented and dried spinach leaves, essential to Nepali cuisine and the quintessential Aloo ko achaar, a must-have accompaniment to any Nepalese meal made with potatoes tossed in sesame seed paste and mustard oil. For dessert there's rich, decadent Nepali kheer made with rice and sweetened with date jaggery. Is your mouth watering? Good, with Club Mahindra, you can witness many such magnificent experiences across 100+ resorts in India and abroad!
