👩‍🍳 How to make Guwahati Breakfast Special

  1. Reheat fish curry (5 mins, medium heat): Gently warm pre-made fish tenga without boiling — the delicate broth should stay clear and sour.
  2. Plate (5 mins): Serve rice with fish tenga, aloo pitika alongside, banana, and tea.

📖 Cultural notes

Guwahati, Assam's largest city and commercial capital, has a breakfast culture centred on rice + fish tenga + pitika — an urban continuation of the rural Assamese breakfast tradition that remains unchanged despite the city's rapid modernisation. ---
