Explanation

Today, I am going to share the recipe for Chitoi Pitha with you all. Without further ado, let’s dive into the process of making this delicious pitha.

---

^{Chitoi Pitha is a very famous delicacy in Bangladesh. This pitha can be enjoyed in different ways. It can be paired with various mashed dishes, beef, sweet items, or prepared as milk Chitoi Pitha. I have never made this pitha before. Today is my first attempt at making it, which makes me quite excited!}

🫕Step I

First, I take an appropriate amount of water in a pot. Then, I place the pot on the stove and bring the water to a boil. I add a little salt to the water. Once the water starts boiling, I turn off the heat.

🫕Step II

Next, I take the required amount of rice flour in a bowl. Then, I gradually add small amounts of hot water into the flour. Using a spoon, I mix the flour and water together.

---

🫕Step III

I continue adding small amounts of water and mix the batter carefully. The mixture should neither be too thick nor too thin. The key to making perfect Chitoi Pitha is getting this batter right. Since this is my first time making it, I am a bit nervous—but let’s see how it turns out!

🫕Step V

	Formed it beautiful holes

Then, I pour a small amount of the rice flour mixture into the pan. After that, I cover the pan with a lid. After a while, I lift the lid to check if the pitha has formed beautiful holes.

Its now ready

Next, I cover it again. At this stage, I keep the heat low. After some time, I uncover the pan and check—the Chitoi Pitha is now ready!

🫕Step VII

I continue making the rest of the Chitoi Pitha in the same way, following the steps carefully.

	With spicy mash item

I have already mentioned that this pitha can be eaten in different ways. Today, I am going to taste it with roasted garlic mash. I usually prefer having it with spicy mashed items, so I prepare this side dish accordingly.
