Dhuska

I had expressed my views about the Diversity that our country has in perhaps any field we talk about while writing abou the other cuisine - baati chokha. I feel like repeating the same before talking about another Regional gem of a dish - Dhuska from Jharkhand. i.e. Repeat ... India is a land of diversity. “Diversity” - even the scope of the word becomes limited, when we think of the variety it has. Be it anything. The Culture, the language, the landscape, the dress, and ............... even the food that the people here so deliciously hog upon.

Rightly said - this dish too,  we must be having it daily in different names on our dining table. But just alittle different combination that it has makes it original and directly originating from the tribal lands of Jharkhand.
It serves as a heavy snacks here.
