Notes from the kitchen
- Dry-roast soybeans patiently over medium heat so they cook evenly to the core without burning the exterior.
- Pungent mustard oil provides the traditional kick characteristic of authentic Nepalese sadeko preparations.
- Original home-cooking adaptation inspired by Nepalese; regional versions vary.
- Use halal-certified meat, poultry, stock, sauces, cheese and other processed ingredients. Check labels and avoid cross-contamination. Recipe screening is not halal certification.
