Nepal being a multi-ethnic nation, the cuisines vary as with ethnicity. However, certain dishes are widely popular among a large portion of Nepalese. If you want to try your hand at making some Nepali cuisine, plenty of families in Nepal on request, would readily offer to help you. Nepalese are generally very hospitable to guests. Alternatively, there are several institutes where such cooking classes are held as well. A couple of names are: Jamaleshwor Institute at Jamal and Ghale cooking class (www.ghalegroup.com). In such institutes, class timings are usually separate for lunch classes and dinner classes. The menus usually include Nepali Thali, which consists of; Dal (Lentil Soup), Bhat (Cooked White Rice), Tarkari (Spiced Vegetables), Saag (Green Leafs), Masu (Spiced Chiken or Mottom Meat), Dahi (Yogurt) etc.
