    A crispy and sweet munching treat, Sel Roti is a marriage between a doughnut and a bagel. One of the most relished Nepalese food items, Sel Roti, is made during Tihar and Dashain religious festivals. The circular rice flour bread is deep-fried, which gives it a crunchy texture from the outside and a soft and doughy texture from the inside. It is usually had during breakfast with dippings made with yoghurt and along with vegetables.<\/p>\n
