Enduri pitha
Enduri pitha, also known as Haldi patra pitha, is a variety of
black gram, rice flour, coconut or Chhena, jaggery, black pepper.[2] Enduri is mostly prepared during Prathamastami[3][4] and Manabasa Gurubara.[5] It is a light snack and has laxative effect because of the turmeric leaves that are used to wrap the pitha. Traditionally, enduri used to be 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]
