👩‍🍳 How to make Breakfast Thali Assam

Prepare all components (40 mins): Ferment rice overnight. Boil potatoes. Char brinjal. Boil korai dal. Make til pitha. Brew tea.
Plate on banana leaf (10 mins): Arrange on a large banana leaf — fermented rice in centre, pitikas arranged around it, pitha on the side, curd and jaggery in small bowls, banana, and tea in a clay cup.

📖 Cultural notes

The full Assamese breakfast thali served on a banana leaf is the celebratory morning meal for guests, festivals, and special occasions — every region has its own version, but the combination of poita bhat, three pitikas, and pitha is universally recognised as the pinnacle of Assamese morning hospitality. ---
