Hello Friends! How are you all?
Today I have presented before you the method of making historical Chunga Pitha.
Ingredients needed to make Chunga Pitha.
- Young bamboo.
- Biron Rice (Grilled Rice).
- Raw and dried leaves of the banana plant.
- Chicken or beef roast.
- fresh water.
- Knife or Bill-hook.
- Gamla.
Go to the bamboo garden and cut the young bamboos you like and the bamboos that have more space between them. Each strip should be cut open on one side and closed on the other. Then they should all be cleaned with water.
The parts of the bowl should be inserted little by little of the raw leaves of the banana plant into the empty parts. Care should be taken while inserting so that the space inside is empty.
Rice with flour should be soaked in water for about an hour. Then they should be removed from the water and lightly dried.
Rice should be added little by little in the hollow parts of the small bowls in which the banana leaves were inserted. While adding the rice, make sure to leave four inches of space at the top.
Water should be poured into the parts of the pot where the rice is placed.
These openings should be closed after the completion of the water injection. Dry leaves of the banana plant can be used in this case.
In making a place for burning the young pieces of ash, care should be taken to ensure that the closed sides are slightly elevated.
The closed sides should be burned first. Then all should be lightly burned.
When the burning is over, leave them for a while to cool down and cut the parts of the bowl with a knife. Carefully separate the banana leaf-wrapped rice from the bowl and keep it in a bowl.
Remove the banana leaf before serving with a meat roast or chicken roast.
