Mysuru: Like in the previous years, tribal food, that too Bamboo Biriyani, juice made out of Makali Beru, Ragi Rotti made of Muthuga leaves, traditional and spicy crab curry are in great demand at the Dasara Aahara Mela that was inaugurated at Scouts and Guides Ground and at MUDA Ground near Lalitha Mahal Palace Hotel yesterday.
Bamboo Chicken Biriyani is rice and chicken mixed in spices stuffed into a piece of raw bamboo stem that is put into fire till outer later becomes charcoal. The bamboo stem is closed with green leaves blocking the steam while food gets cooked. And the result is the rich flavour of bamboo extracted by the circulating steam while aroma of food itself remains largely contained.
