Roti

Sel roti is a traditional Nepali ring-shaped, deep-fried rice bread, often enjoyed during festivals like Dashain and Tihar. Made from a batter of rice flour, water, sugar, and sometimes a bit of milk or ghee, the mixture is whipped to a smooth consistency. The batter is then poured in circular shapes into hot oil, creating a crispy outer layer and a soft, fluffy interior.

Its distinctive, lightly sweet taste and crispy texture make it a favorite snack or dessert. Sel roti pairs well with spicy pickles, curries, or tea, making it versatile as a festival food or a regular snack.
