My meal looked quite different than yours and was composed of yak, green peppers, and onions in a spicy sauce. I don't know what the spices were, but the "hot" level was modest. I don't know if this helps. I'd like to make it but have no clue on how to prepare it. In a recent trip to Tibet, I had Shapta, which was delicious.

She just made Shapta last night. Its kind of a regional thing. Like Indian curry, depends on the region. Her family's Shapta is made with Spinach, medicinal spice, beef (tradionally Yak, but try to get that state side), brewed soy, shallots. Served with Tibetan flat bread. Simple hearty dish. Her's doesn't have any cheese. But for cheese's I seen used low salt goat cheese as suitable substitute to yak cheese. My wife is of Tibetan decent and her parents refugees from the 1959 Coup.
