mohinga


This picture was taken at a New Year's Eve party we were fortunate to be able to attend. Alysia is holding a bowl of one of the favorite national foods, mohinga. It is basically a lot like a soup, and it is served over a bed of noodles. The base of mohinga is made by boiling a fish. It also includes a variety of local items, including ginger, garlic, onion, banana stem, "smelly gourd," and duck egg.
