In Bihar, it’s called ghughri. Traditional ghugni is made with dried white peas. Some use minced lamb in it, some don’t. Ghugni can also be made with black chickpeas, dried green peas or even black eyed beans. It’s the most popular evening snack in the eastern part of India. Assam, Bengal, Odisha and Bihar have their own variation of ghugni.

Ghugni has a medley of spices with great flavors put together. It’s considered as one of the most cheapest and filling food from the varieties of street food we get in Eastern parts. It can be served with almost everything, puri, parathas, rotis, or just as it is plain ghugni. Most important part of ghugni is the garnish after cooking it. Traditionally there are always some fine chopped onions, finely chopped green chilies, lime juice and some even add grated coconut, raw or roasted ones.

Serve Bihari Kale Chane Ki Ghugni with Whole Wheat Lachha Paratha or Puri.
