Acknowledgement
I would like to thank my teachers and parents for their guidance and support in
completing this Art Integrated Project on 'Bihar’s Food and Food Products.' I
learned a lot about the food, culture, and festivals of Bihar while working on this
project.
Introduction
Bihar is a beautiful state in eastern India known for its rich culture, history, and
delicious food. People in Bihar eat a variety of tasty and healthy dishes. Their
food is often prepared during festivals and family gatherings. In this project, we
explore Bihari dishes like Litti Chokha, Dal Puri, and the ingredients that make
them so special. You can find Bihar on the eastern side of the India map.
English
Litti Chokha is a famous dish of Bihar. It is made from wheat flour stuffed with
sattu (gram flour). The stuffing has spices, mustard oil, and lemon. Chokha is
made of mashed potato, tomato, and brinjal. Dal Puri is also a well-known food
item. It is a puri filled with spicy lentil paste. Both dishes are served with chutney
or pickles. These foods are eaten during festivals and gatherings. They are rich
in taste and full of energy. Bihari food is both traditional and nutritious.
Art: Draw a Litti Chokha and label: Dough, Stuffing (sattu), Chokha (potato,

स्वादिष्ट और पौष्टिक होता है। यह विशेष रूप से त्योहारों में खाया जाता
है।
