Baji

(Chiura, बजि, चिउरा)

Baji is a Nepalese dish consisting of pounded rice. It is usually consumed as a snack, paired with curry, meat, yogurt, or tea. Baji is especially popular among field workers, although it is also a key part of traditional wedding ceremonies in the country.


There are two main types of baji: red and white, the red one being much crispier than its white counterpart.
