做法
- 厚底锅中把水烧大开。下盐。
- 转中火。一次性把面粉倒入,立刻用打蛋器猛烈搅打防结块。混合物会迅速变成硬实的稠糊。
- 换木勺。持续猛烈搅动 6 分钟——dhindo 会从生灰紫色浆体变成深褐色光亮糊体,与锅壁分离。
- 转最小火,盖盖 10 分钟——dhindo 进一步熟透,风味发展。中途偶尔搅动以免糊底。
- 尝味:若仍有生粉味,再煮 5 分钟。拌入酥油。
- 趁热盛盘——dhindo 凉得很快。配蔬菜咖喱、gundruk 汤、新鲜泡菜以及顶上一抹酥油。徒手吃:捏一块 dhindo,蘸到咖喱里,送入口。dhindo 必须现做现吃——回锅后会变硬变橡皮。

文化背景
Dhindo 是尼泊尔山区的主食——历史上稻米昂贵或难得,荞麦或小米才是当地主粮。它与马加尔、古隆等族裔最相关,如今城市尼泊尔人也把它视作健康替代米饭的选择。荞麦 dhindo 在低山区更传统;小米 dhindo 在更高的山区更常见。现代加都的餐厅把它作为『古朴风味』供应。
