This is either rolled into noodles or made into steamed dumplings called [[momo (food)|momos]]. Meat dishes are likely to be [[yak]], goat, or [[Lamb (food)|mutton]], often dried, or cooked into a spicy [[stew]] with potatoes. [[Mustard seed]] is cultivated in Tibet, and therefore features heavily in its cuisine. Yak [[yogurt]], butter and cheese are frequently eaten, and well-prepared yogurt is considered something of a prestige item. [[Butter tea]] is a very popular drink.
