Description: Litti, along with chokha, is a complete meal originated from the Indian state of Bihar[1] and parts of Eastern Uttar Pradesh. It is a dough ball made up of whole wheat flour and stuffed with gram flour, pulses and mixed with herbs and spices and then baked over coal or wood then it is tossed with much ghee.[2] Although very often confused with the closely related baati, it is a completely different dish in terms of taste, texture and preparation. It may be eaten with yogurt, baigan chokha, alu chokha, and papad.[3] The litti are traditionally baked over wood fire,[4] but in the modern day a new fried version has been developed. Detailed ingredients List Dough consists of mainly atta / wheat flour baking powder ajwain / carom seeds salt ghee / clarified butter Stuffing consists of mainly sattu / roasted gram flour coriander (finely chopped) chilli (finely chopped) ginger garlic paste jeera / cumin kalonji / nigella seeds ajwain / carom seeds salt little bit of lemon juice or dry mango powder and mustard oil It’s depends on you Litti Chokha is a healthy combination because it does not have too much cooking oil added to it. Both are either roasted or baked. Of course, desi ghee adds to its calories but you can choose to avoid it or use a little bit of it. Also, pure desi ghee comes with its own set of health benefits unlike your refined oils.
