More About This Experience
You've seen locals gathering around numerous tea shops that line the backstreets of Kathmandu chatting away while drinking tea and eating what looks like larger but slimmer version of doughnuts. The similarity of the Sel roti to doughnuts ends at the general shape, these favorite breakfast goodies are made out of rice flour and gets the day started for most Nepalis.
While you will also be making vegetable curry for this course, Sushma will begin with the main course which is the Sel. The first step here is to make the batter from rice flour and to do this you will have to add butter and sugar to the rice flour while making the batter. The trick here is in balancing the ingredients to get the right texture. Once you have this ready, you will first have to practice pouring out the batter from a funnel into hot oil in a circle. It may look simple while Sushma demonstrates but it'll take a couple of tries before getting the hang of it. Nonetheless, once you're confident about pouring the batter in oil pan then you are ready to prepare the Sel Roti.
With the Sel roti done, you'll move on to chopping the vegetables for the curry - feel free to suggest which vegetable you would like - Sushma generally works with cauliflowers though. Since the Sel Roti is common breakfast item, Sushma will also teach you how to make a nice cup of Nepali tea too. ;)
