Shakam Zhimsey is an exceptional chef’s special that elevates traditional Bhutanese sun-dried beef to new heights of flavor. “Zhimsey” translates to “delicious” in Dzongkha, perfectly describing this mouthwatering creation. The dish features premium sun-dried beef that is deep-fried to crispy perfection, then tossed with aromatic garlic, spicy chilies, black pepper, and sweet onions. This Bhutanese take on a Manchurian-style preparation creates a perfect harmony of textures – crispy beef with tender vegetables – and flavors that range from savory to spicy. Shakam Zhimsey is truly a celebration of Bhutanese culinary innovation.
