If you have an appetite for exploring the vast culinary diversity of India, you can’t ignore the gem that is Tripura cuisine. Today, we focus on a specialty from this northeastern state: Chakhwi. This traditional bamboo shoot-based recipe is loved for its unique taste and nutritional value. In our version, we are giving this classic dish an exciting twist by cooking it in pure double-hiran mustard oil.

Using Double Hiran Mustard Oil in Chakhwi not only adds depth to its flavor but also infuses the dish with multiple health benefits. Mustard oil, rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats and Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, aids in maintaining cardiovascular health and boosting overall wellbeing. The Double Hiran brand assures purity and premium quality, taking your cooking experience to the next level.

Ready to embark on this culinary adventure? Here’s a simple guide to preparing chakhwi in Double Hiran Mustard Oil.

Step 1: Assemble the ingredients.

First, gather all the necessary ingredients. You’ll need bamboo shoots, jackfruit seeds, pork (optional), raw papaya, ripe banana, spices, and, of course, Double Hiran Mustard Oil.

Step 2: Cooking Chakhwi

Begin by heating Double Hiran Mustard Oil in a pan until it starts to smoke. Allow it to cool slightly to reduce its pungency. Add your spices (like bay leaves, cloves, and cinnamon) to the oil, allowing them to release their aroma.

Next, add the chopped bamboo shoots, jackfruit seeds, chunks of pork (if you’re using it), raw papaya, and ripe banana to the pan. Sauté these ingredients well until they start to soften.

Add water, cover the pan, and let it simmer until all the ingredients are well-cooked and the flavors meld together.

Step 3: Serving Chakhwi

Chakhwi is traditionally served hot with plain rice. The unique taste of the dish, enhanced by the rich flavor of Double Hiran Mustard Oil, makes for an exceptional dining experience.

And there you have it—your very own delectable and nutritious Chakhwi, prepared in pure Double Hiran Mustard Oil, ready to be savored. This dish is a testament to how good food and good health can go hand in hand.
