This is a must must item that all the people of Odisha relish. It's a nice dish that can be taken all year round but it is a must during the summers. One feels so satisfying after having this Chunka Pakhala along with various accompanyments like aloo fry, fish fry, cucumber salad, fried vegetables, saaga, bharta, tomato poda, mixture etc...
