Litti Chokha is a traditional snack food found in Indias Bihar state. Litti is basically consists of wheat and sattu (powdered
roasted blackgrams ) formed into balls with spices, and then dipped in ghee (claried butter).

Chokha is a dip prepared by mashing boiled potatoes, tomatoes and eggplant together with some spices. Sometimes I
prefer to roast veggies instead of boiling. It adds extra /avour to the recipe. In some places Chokha is also known as
Bharta.

For the rst time I had litti chokha in delhi. It was so delicious that i could not resist myself from preparing it at home.
Now i usually prepare it every month.

Traditionally litti were roasted over chulha but now due to non availability of rewood these are prepared either on gas
stove or oven. I have prepared mine in oven. Litti chokha are absolutely delicious recipe. Lets prepare .
