BHUTANESE CHEESE CURRY (EMA DAJI)

This dish is usually made very hot in Bhutan, however when I make it it's with jalapenos and fewer chilies. Adjust to your own taste. The cheese used in Bhutan is Churpi, which is a cross between farmer's cheese and feta. Since it is not widely available, feta is substituted in this recipe. This unusual soup-like curry is rich and warming on a cool day. Recipe adapted from the book, "Mangoes and Curry Leaves " by the team of Alford and Duguid.

  • Cover, reduce the heat slightly and cook at a strong simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Add the tomatoes and garlic and bring back to a boil, then simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, or until the tomatoes are melting into the liquid and the garlic has softened.
  • Add the cheese and simmer for another 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Stir, remove from the heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
  • this is best served warm, not hot.
  • Stir in coriander leaves (cilentro), add salt and pepper to taste and serves.
  • This is usually served with Bhutanese red rice, but it is also good with plain rice accompanied with a stir fried green vegetable.

8 green cayenne chilies, seeded and chopped
1 large onion, sliced lengthwise
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups tomatoes, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1/3 lb feta cheese, copped in small cubes
4 tablespoons coriander leaves, chopped

KEWA DATSHI (BHUTANESE DISH)

Not the best picture, I know, but it tastes sooo good! Kewa Datshi - literally meaning potatoes and cheese - is a delicious thick gravy-like Bhutanese dish that is made up of potatoes, chiles, and cheese. Serve it like a soup or along with rice! I had it for the first time when I visited Bhutan and fell in live with its flavors. This is my recreation of that dish and tastes almost the same. An authentic kewa datshi is very spicy but in this recipe I have toned it down as I cannot handle that much spice. But you can adjust the amount of chiles to your liking. Enjoy!

EMA DATSHI (BHUTAN)

I used this recipe for week 31 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook on meal from every nation on Earth, and Bhutan is my 31st stop. Unless otherwise noted, my Travel by Stove recipes are taken from authentic or traditional sources. This recipe does come from a Bhutanese source but is traditionally made with yak's cheese, which you can't currently get in the US. The substitute of feta and Danish bleu is considered an acceptable substitute if you can't get yak's cheese.

VEGETARIAN EMA DATSHI (BHUTAN CHILI CHEESE STEW)

The national dish of Bhutan, this stew of hot peppers and cheese is extremely unique. It is usually made with a type of Bhutanese farmer's cheese, which can be approximated in the West by using queso fresco or feta cheese. If you can't handle super spicy food, try using poblanos or Anaheim peppers in place of the hot peppers. This version is different than the other recipe of the same name on this site. From Vegetarian Cooking and Recipes. The Kingdom of Bhutan, is a landlocked state in South Asia located at the eastern end of the Himalayas. It is bordered to the north by China and to the south, east and west by the Republic of India.
