Rice is a part of all meals in Assam. A traditional breakfast consists of "chira" with yogurt and jaggery. Mostly farmers eat cooked rice soaked overnight ("poita") simply accompanied with salt, mustard oil, onions, etc. Snacks are "xandoh", "kumol saul" or "bora saul", sticky rice, which can be eaten with sweet or salty accompaniments. For other major meals, rice could be boiled, steamed or wrapped in leaves and roasted. 'Sunga Saul' is a special preparation in which (sticky) rice ("bora saul") is cooked in bamboo hollows called 'sunga'. 'Sewa diya Bhaat' is another preparation where sticky rice is steamed over boiling water. They are generally served with meat or fish. Sticky rice is also wrapped in leaves, usually plantain leaves or "tora pat", and dropped into boiling water to prepare 'tupula bhat'.
