The common breakfast dishes that are eaten in Bhutan
1. Shakam Ema Datshi
Shakam is Bhutanese dried beef, which is among the most famous of meats. The beef is dried and preserved so it tastes similar to beef jerky but thicker, and not quite completely dehydrated.
For shakam datshi, dried beef is cut into bite-sized pieces and simmered with cheese and butter. What a combo this is.

3. Gondo Datshi
Butter egg fry, or gondo datshi, is like the ultimate Bhutanese scrambled eggs you can imagine.
Eggs, are scrambled up with datshi cheese, and a huge amount of butter, and in some cases small bits of dried chili. The result is a very condensed scrambled egg cheese mixture that is fragrant from butter and packed with heartiness.
