Pema’s Kewa Datshi

Pema was so kind to invite me to her place and show me how the very typical Bhutanese dish “Kewa datshi” is made. Since then I have tried out a couple of different datshi dishes. “Datshi” means “cheese” in Dzongkha. Like the Swiss people the Bhutanese use a lot of cheese in their dishes : )

​Ingredients: 
3 potatoes
3-4 green chilies
1 tea spoon of salt
Oil 
Fresh Bhutanese cheese

Tips: 
As a substitute for the Bhutanese cheese you can also use young unsalted feta or ricotta.
​For the chilies you can use long green peppers like new Mexico chilies, Turkish “Dolma” peppers or Hungarian wax peppers ->  it’s best if they are medium hot
