- Опубликовано: 1 окт 2024
- The Chakma tribe of Tripura live in close harmony with nature, which is evident in their culture, including their culinary traditions. They primarily live in the Chittagong Hills Tracts of Bangladesh, the Chin and Arakan provinces of Myanmar, the northeastern Indian states of Mizoram, Tripura, and Arunachal Pradesh, and in small groups in West Bengal.
In today's episode, we are introducing you to a slice of this unique ethnic cuisine, presented by a husband-wife duo from the community who run an exclusive Chakma kitchen in Durgacherra named Tongh Ghar. This cherished initiative by Chaman Chakma and Tulana Chakma aims to promote their cuisine and culture to the world.
To reach Durgacherra, we took a train from Jogendranagar to Manu. After alighting at Manu, we boarded an auto-rickshaw and reached our destination. Tongh Ghar stands in the backdrop of verdant paddy fields and faraway hills but is right on the road. The genial owner Chaman Chakma gave us a warm welcome. Over a cup of tea and two kinds of traditional rice-based snacks called pidhe (similar to pithe in Bengali), he shared a brief overview of the Chakma community. Made with simple ingredients, the pidhe were quite tasty.
We then joined Tulana Ji, the head chef in the kitchen, to witness the lunch preparation. The mise en place was ready. most of the ingredients sourced from their backyard garden. She started with the making of a pork dish called Sugor Erah Goram. Fatty chunks of pork were slow cooked with chilies, ginger, garlic, onion, and seasonings. As it was left to simmer, we proceeded to make Amleh Guloh Tohn. For this, she cleaned a bunch of freshly plucked roselle fruits and tossed them into boiling water that had onions, suguni, salt, and turmeric. This dish introduced us to one of the two key ingredients of Chakma cuisine: dried fish, known as suguni.
After the glistening red-colored stew was ready, she began preparing Hattol Tohn. It is raw jackfruit cooked with suguni and shidol, a fermented shrimp paste-the second key ingredient in Chakma cuisine. This dish used very little oil. When the pork was ready, she added a bunch of native basil called sbrang, which infused a unique flavor into the dish. Next was the turn of Maajh Hebaang, one of the most famous traditional dishes of the Chakma. Freshly caught carplets are mixed with some spices and then cooked on a low flame inside a banana leaf parcel. She then blanched some Reh Saak, as boiled greens are important to the daily meal. The last dish we prepared was a lightly spiced red lentil dish. We learned that lentils aren't typically part of Chakma cuisine, but Tongh Ghar offers a couple of simple and unique dal preparations for the variety of visitors, especially Bengalis.
When the food was ready, we joined Chaman Ji, Sivangi, and her friend Rina for lunch, sitting on the floor. Chaman drew our attention to the dainty-looking individual mini dining tables made of bamboo called mejaang. We started with Reh Saak and rice. To enhance the flavor of this subtly flavored spread, there was a famous chili and pork-based hand-pounded condiment called murich guddhiyeh. The pork with basil was tender and flavorsome. The jackfruit curry stole our hearts with its distinct umami and piquant taste. Roselle with suguni was tangy and piquant. Infused with the flavors of onion, ginger, garlic, and chilies, the Maajh Hebaang had a distinctively delicious taste. The food is characterized by its simplicity, with minimal use of spices, relying instead on the natural flavors of local ingredients. It reflects their deep connection with nature and resourcefulness.
After this hearty meal, we gulped down some roselle tea and finally bid the lovely family goodbye. It was a great opportunity to experience and learn about Chakma cuisine and culture.

France o ja na

Why the words are like bangali 😅
In the year 2005, I went to Chakma village located at Namsai & Dyun (in Arunachal Pradesh) for research with IWGIA (International Working Group for Indigenous Affairs) team & enjoyed Chakma food. Indeed Chakma people are intelligent & very laborious. They are very humble & hospitality to their guest
Chakma log bohut hi piyare ache log hoty hai❤
Bilkul
The best of tripura& debbarma &jamatiya ...

I don't understand the mentality of Tripura's people.... literally they started fighting in this video ..for what for not showing their cuisines?? Arei yeh food vlog hai...iss series ka aur bhi video ayenge. Just try to enjoy the content...!! Why to waste your precious time by doing this nonsense debates?
Tipra/db people are very much more interested in claiming that they're the authentic citizens of tripura. They got triggered for no reason(not tasting their food)
@@nameincognito oky i accept ke joh bhi ase fighting kiya voh sab galat ha hum sabke culture ko respect aur appreciate karna chahiyein esmey koyi jelousy nahi ha...but your are saying tipra/db people it means tum sare logo ko bol rahe ho and tiprasa log bhi koyi kharap nahi ha bass kuch log ha joh logo ke bhurai karne ka mauka dundhta rehta ha and not only in tripra community har comunity mein asa log hota ha.
Come on brooh...kuch log shirf kisike insult karne ke liye born hota ha toh onlogo ke vajah se hum kyu jagraa kareein and chahein koyi bhi tribal community ho ya phir non tribal ho humein sab hi logo se milke rehna chahiyein toh aap bhi apna dill ko bura matt banayein just ignored and love people😊
@@SalkaDarlong I respect your opinion and I've already said in my other comment that I don't mean to all the people out there
I feel greatful to see him that he's also exploring our Chakma society , bohot achcha lagta hai dil se
Tripura foods are so hygienic where they won't use oil or spice yet tasty & healthy 👍
Where in the world hygiene means no oil and no spice. 😂
That's not called hygienic it's called organic
@@chinmoy7754exactly
Hygienic mean cleanliness
Life is nothing without Sidol and suguni ❤❤❤
Thank you sir for promoting our traditional dishes. I hope u enjoy it. Love from tripura chakma community ❤ Visit again 🙏patturuturu🙏🙏🙏

Please go and visit Jamatia and debbarma tribal areas like udaipur tripura for tasting and having their food as well.. its so tasty and healthy as well
Instead of saying jamatia and Debbarma you can say Tiprasa / indegenious people...jamatia/Debbarma is surname not community..do you say go to Das and debnath house to taste their food ?
I'm from Coochbehar, West Bengal belongs to Rajbanshi Community..here we are the the biggest community & we also love to eat dried fish(Sutka/sutki) & Sidol 😋
Chakma cuisines are really aromatic and tasty. I also have a chakma frnd they r very die heart fan of chidol

Very informative video. I guess never in RUclips history someone has covered Chakma food so extensively. Good work Anubhav ji. That's what makes you different from other vlogers.❤🙏
My friend from school days is Chakma and she's an amazing cook. I make annual "pilgrimage" to her home now to experience delicious Chakma cuisine. 😁🙏🏽
Sidol is the best for our chakma community
Sidol Atcha lagta he kha ke .Mera unti Chakma tribe k he.
Chakma tribes are sweet . Chakma tribe was my topic in South Asia, political science.
Omg, such healthy food. People in urban areas won't accept these recipes easily. Secret for good skin and long life❤🌶️😇🙏
why you do not try our Tripura food at Tripura.you must try our tripuri food first next time when you come in Tripura.
Love from Mizoram chakma ❤❤

Thanks bhaiya chakma community ka video banane ke liye ❤ love from chakma community ❤
Sidol ke bina zindagi aadura hai ❤
You are a very well informed food vlogger, you know where and what you are having. The way you asked about Guria Mairum or Rice is really accurate. In such a vast mixed culture it sometimes can be confusing but from your side keeping yourself well informed really solves alot of problem.
Beautiful place . Jis table par lunch serve kiya gaya tha , bahut hi sundar tha.
Hello, i'm from chakma community
Thank you sir for exploring our chakma culture ❤
India ke log aajkal tribal logo mein chakma logoko bahut preferance de rahe hai. Kyuki unka language indo-european hai isliye.
Lekin tribal logo mein dusra tribe bhi hain jinka food dikhaya nahi jata.
PEHLE MAINLAND MEIN RACISM HUA, ABHI TRIPURA MEIN HI RACISM START HO GAYA. KARTE RAHO RACISM UPARWALA BHI DEKH RAHA HAI.
Degine hub gm lagilu....dekkar bohot assa laga
Your video is awesome sir ❤😊
Use of organic and oil free food is the best part of north east India.We should learn from them.Thank you Anubhav and team for enriching us about there culture , food habits etc.through your informative and interesting videos.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Chaman Bai good to see you after 20yrs or more. Lots of love from Arunachal Pradesh
Thank you.
Kitne simple log hai ye, passionately talking bat thr food. Very nice episode.
@delhifoodwalks please visit next BIZU Festival
Most of the Nort East delicacies are cultivated taste and flavour. Unlike idli,dosa, pao bhaji or bara pao, which one instantly likes. It takes time to really enjoy the different flavours of north east and once you get into it, nothing like it.
Love & respect from Chakma community from CHT
I am glad sir that you have tried our cuisine whatever!!! BTW you have attractive smile on your face❤️
Sorry but.. Chakma is from Bangladesh.. They are... Refugee not indian.
Oh really brother saab chakma log Bangladeshi nahin hote hai tumlogka tripuri bhi toh Bangladesh mein hai uska kyaa tumlog bhi toh Bangladeshi ho lol 😂 dusro ko bolne se pehle khud ka tribe ke bare mein sochna gawar insaan😴
Oh really brother saab chakma log Bangladeshi nahin hote hai tumlogka tripuri bhi toh Bangladesh mein hai uska kyaa fir toh tu bhi Bangladesh se hai😂 dusro ko bolne se pehle khud ka tribe ke bare mein sochna gawar insaan khud ka tribe bhi toh Bangladesh mein mar rahe hai uska kyaa fir toh tumlog bhi refugees ho lol 😂 literally tere jaisa gawar insaan dekha nahin hai thoda padhai bhi kar lena Chakma aur tumlog sweet debbarmas ke bare mein bhaiya jii😴
Bro, let me tell you about it, first' of all i acknowledged that some of the chakmas are from Bangladesh but not all, moreover Bangladesh and Pakistan they used to be a part of India only,and it got partition in the year of 1947.After the partition of India with Pakistan and Bangladesh some people were left in India and some were in Bangladesh that's,ok let me ask you why then there are presence of different tribe of tripura ,reang and mog tribe in Bangladesh?
@@eshichaon7018 do you have any prove.😂😂😂. I think your chakma right? 😂.
@@gigi-tz1vk Hm.. Arunachal ka.. Hai 😂😂😂.. Aur.. Chakma.. Bangladesh ka nai tho kya hai.. They are.. Refugees.
Aakesh chakma from ARUNACHAL PRADESH DIYUN

Chakma food kaisa laga Mizoram ahyo chawngte city se ❤😊
Wow ❤
Not only in chakma traditional it is also debbarma jamatia community ...
After looking at the comment section I am very sorry to say Many debbarma people are feeling jealous because he tried chakma cuisine before trying theirs. I repeat not everyone but many. Apne khane ko tasty dikhake dusro k khane ko bura bolna is not a good thing my friends. Also not all chakma are immigrants. Don't give this refugee/immigrant title to every Chakma people residing here
Yes they are feeling jealous 😹
Who told u all chakma are not immigrants? Chakma move to Tripura mizoram and Arunachal after kaptai dam in Rangamati east pakistan( bangladesh).
@@invincibleminor lol no dumbo
@@Kobor12 huh wdym by not addressing ethnicity? It's not about ethnicity my brother it's about tasting a cuisine of a certain tribe.
@@Kobor12your reply in this way shows your jealousy already
There's a passing remark from one of the hosts that in WB they faced objection because of dry fish cooking, but the ground reality is that In West Bengal many households cook dry fish... it's quite popular in many parts of WB also... at all the local markets in WB one can find variety of dry fishes. Only some specific Bengali people in the southern parts of WB don't eat dry fishes because of the stale smell.
