Nepali Vegetable Curry
One of the most simple and tasty mixed vegetable dish is this Nepali Veg Curry I had at a road side food stall along with some steaming hot rice. The fresh vegetables grown on the terai or foot-hills of The Himalayas make this wonderful vegetable. I find this to be a real easy way to serve all the vegetables at one go. You can give it a try, and I am sure you would love it as much.
