Bagiya

Bagiya (also called Pithha¹) is a delicacy of the Maithils,² Tharu and Dhimal communities of India and Nepal. It is a steamed dumpling that consists of an external covering of rice flour³ and an inner content of sweet substances such like chaku, vegetables and other fried items. The delicacy plays a very important role in Madhesi and Tharu society, and is a key part of the festival of Diwali (also known as Deepawali or Tihar) on the day of Laxmi Puja.⁴⁵
