Selroti is a ring-shaped, deep-fried rice bread that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, unique to Nepal. It is made by mixing rice flour, sugar, milk, and ghee, allowing the batter to ferment slightly before frying. Selroti is an essential part of Nepali festivals like Dashain and Tihar, as well as weddings and pujas (religious ceremonies). Families prepare large batches of Selroti, and the process of frying them is often a communal activity where relatives and neighbors gather to help. The aroma of freshly made Selroti is associated with festive joy and togetherness.  It symbolizes festive joy, hospitality, and Nepali culinary heritage.
