From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Enḍuri piṭhā (Odia- ଏଣ୍ଡୁରି ପିଠା), also known as haḷadi patra piṭhā (Odia- ହଳଦି ପତ୍ର ପିଠା), is a variety of pitha made in the Indian state of Odisha, mostly in the northern, eastern and central regions.[1] Ingredients are turmeric leaves, black gram, rice flour, coconut or chhena, jaggery, and black pepper.[2] Enduri is mostly prepared during Prathamastami[3][4] and Manabasa Gurubara.[5] It is a light snack and has a laxative effect because of the turmeric leaves that are used to wrap the pitha. Traditionally, enduri were made by steaming in large earthen pots.[6] Enduri is one of the many other pithas offered to Jagannath in the Jagannath Temple, Puri for sakala dhupa (breakfast).[7][8][9]
