Every day, from noon to late night, hundreds of people come here to taste Litti Chokha, and around 800 to 1000 plates are sold every day.
Litti is made from four types of flour
The biggest specialty of Jitu Tiwari’s stall is that Litti is prepared in the traditional way by a mixture of four types of flour. Jowar, millet, maize and wheat flour are used in this, which further increases the taste and nutrition of Litti. After kneading the dough well, Bihar’s famous Sattu is filled in it, which gives a wonderful taste to the inner part of Litti. After this, Litti is baked on cow dung cakes in low flame, due to which its aroma and taste become unique. The combination of Chokha made of potatoes, brinjal and tomatoes with Litti makes it even more special.
