Mixed Thukpa
Warm, hearty, and deeply comforting, Mixed Thukpa is a flavorful Himalayan noodle soup that combines tender meat, fresh vegetables, and chewy noodles in a savory broth — perfect for chilly days or when you crave a soul-soothing bowl of goodness.
This popular Tibetan-Nepali dish starts with a flavorful, mildly spiced clear broth made from slow-cooked chicken or meat stock, infused with garlic, ginger, onions, and aromatic spices that add warmth without overpowering the fresh ingredients.
The mixed version brings together the best of everything: tender slices of chicken, juicy buff or pork pieces, and sometimes prawns, along with an assortment of crisp seasonal vegetables like cabbage, carrots, green beans, capsicum, and spring onions.
The hearty wheat noodles are cooked just right — soft yet firm — and soak up the broth beautifully while adding a satisfying bite.
A dash of soy sauce, green chilies, or Szechuan pepper (timur) may be added for extra flavor and mild heat, and the whole bowl is garnished with fresh coriander, a squeeze of lime, and sometimes a sprinkling of fried onions for extra aroma.
Served steaming hot, Mixed Thukpa is a filling, flavorful meal that warms you from the inside out — a beloved comfort dish enjoyed across Nepal’s hills and streets, especially during the cold season.
