卡赛 (Tibetan: ཁ་ཟས་ khazas, 'mouth food') is a wheat-flour-and-butter dough fried into flat shapes - strips, lattices, ears, butterflies - and stacked high on the altar during
藏历新年 (Losar). Pieces are eaten throughout the holiday and offered to guests. The shapes have names like
耳朵卡赛 ('ear kasai') and
大卡赛.
