Default Himalayan food?

...

I have a cupoardful of Nepalese and Tibetan
spices here (well-traveled friend). I have several
recipes for dishes from these countries, but have
cooked them all several times. I ate at a Tibetan
and Nepalese restaurant not long ago and failed
to write down the names of any of the dishes... but
I know I haven't made any of them. No matter how
much searching I do with a wide variety of search
terms, I can still only find the same few recipes out
there. Surely there must be more posted SOMEWHERE!
Sure, I may not find the lamb stew or the chicken over
noodles they had at the restaurant, or even the chicken
wings or the dipping sauces, but surely, surely there
must be more available than what I already have.
Can anyone either point me in that direction or send me
recipes you may have? Likewise Bhutan, or anywhere
else in the general region.


Try searching at Dogpile: www.dogpile.com -- it's a metasearch
engine. I found more sites than I could shake a stick at when
searching for "tibetan recipes," "nepalese recipes," and "bhutanese
recipes." It's also useful to keep in mind that the food you had at
the restaurant may not have been "authentic," and that "authentic
cuisine" can be many things, from being cooked by a person of that
nationality (I'm American, therefore everything I cook is American
food) or traditional dishes (I'm American, but I'm learning to cook
traditional Danish food).
