Gwaramari is a type of traditional bread from Newa cuisine in Nepal. The name derives from the Newa words gwara, meaning "round," and mari, meaning "bread". ^[1] The bread is especially associated with the Kathmandu Valley, where it is commonly eaten as a breakfast food. ^[2] It is typically served with milk tea and may form part of a simple morning meal. ^[3]

Preparation

Gwaramari is made from a dough prepared by combining flour, baking powder, water, and spices such as cumin or other seasonings used in Newa cooking. The mixture is shaped into small portions and deep-fried until the exterior becomes crisp and golden while retaining a soft interior. ^{[4] [5]}
