Litti Recipe – लिट्टी: Litti Chokha (लिट्टी चोखा) is a famous Bihari dish. Today, I am sharing my Recipe; I’ll share the Chokha recipe in my next recipe. Litti is a round wheat flour ball stuffed with sattu and spices. Traditionally, people cook it over coal, wood, or cow-dung fire with plenty of ghee and serve it with chokha. In my recipe, I use an oven to cook the litti’s.
