What it is
The golden ring of Tihar: a crisp, lacy rice-flour doughnut fried in ghee, sweet and chewy — cooked by sisters for their brothers at Bhai Tika. Ingredients: rice flour, milk, sugar, ghee or butter, fennel or cardamom (optional), oil for frying. Recipe: 1) Cook rice flour with milk and sugar into a thick batter; rest. 2) Pipe or hand-form rings (a steady hand spirals the batter from a cloth funnel). 3) Fry in ghee until deep gold and crisp. 4) Drain; they keep for days. Serve: during the Tihar festival with other sweets, and with tea all winter. Flavor: caramel-crisp outside, tender sweet crumb. History: sel roti is ancient in the hills; at Tihar it carries a sister's blessing for her brother's long life. See also: Dal Bhat, Momos.
