Khasi ko bhutan is a dish prepared from the internal organs of a goat. The delicacy is widely popular in Nepal and often enjoyed as snacks.

After a goat is slain, its internal organs are taken apart and thoroughly washed. For Khasi ko bhutan or khasi ko bhutuwa, the most important organ is the stomach and its parts like the intestine and the whole digestive system, excluding the rectum.

The stomach needs to be appropriately cleaned; otherwise, you definitely smell it while eating.

Khasi ko bhutan Ingredients

  • 500gms of internal organs (mostly stomach)
  • 4 tablespoons of oil 
  • salt to taste
  • a teaspoon of turmeric powder
  • 2 teaspoons of cumin and coriander powder
  • chili powder to taste
  • a teaspoon of garam masala
  • a teaspoon of garlic ginger paste

Khasi ko bhutan Preparation

  • Clean the intestines(big and small) with clean running water just like water runs through the pipe until the organ is transparent.
  • Clean the stomach clean, so no remains of food are seen.

  • Boil the organs for 10 minutes in a low flame. This is to soften the stomach’s internal layer(honeycomb patterns), so those can be scraped off.
