Sukuti

Sukuti is a dried meat product of Nepalese origin but is also used in the Himalayan parts of India and Tibet. It is usually made from buffalo, and sometimes from lamb or goat. It is a staple dish of the Limbu and Gurung people. It is known as Sakhekya in the Limbu language. It was used as a source of protein and also to add variety to the diet during the winter seasons in the mountain areas. Today food is generally available most year-round among mountain communities so sukuti is a delicacy that may be eaten at any time. Sukuti is one of Nepal's many types of meat products; it can be fried and eaten in many ways.
