Mutton Choila

Mutton Choila is a popular, fiery, and aromatic dish from the Newari cuisine of Nepal, consisting of spiced, grilled, and marinated meat. While traditionally made with water buffalo meat, it is commonly prepared with mutton or lamb, especially outside of the Kathmandu Valley. It is a staple of festivals and is often served as part of the Samay Baji set, usually accompanied by beaten rice (chiura) and local spirits.
