Food In Nepal


Nepal is known as an agricultural country . different kinds of crops are grown here . rice and jute are main crops of Nepal. Other crops are wheat, maize, millet, barley, sugar-cane, tea, tobacco, etc.
Different kinds of vegetables, such as potato, tomato, cauliflower, cabbage, pumpkin, onion, garlic, lady’s finger, etc are grown here . 

Seasonal fruits such as mango, orange, apple, pine-apple, Jake-fruit, grapes, coconut,  etc are also available here.
Different kinds of meat can be bought in Nepal, but beef is totally prohibited here .
The most commonly eaten foods are rice and bread. Common people cannot afford butter, meat , rice, pulse, and vegetables at midday as dinner. They take rice or bread with curry and vegetables as supper in the evening.
Almost all people eat delicious and uncommon foods on some occasions. The Nepalese people eat beaten rice with curds and meat at dashain and sel  roti and sweetmeat at tihar.
I think Nepal should produce more rice, wheat, tea and sugarcane, so that it might export to foreign countries.
