Podom Jillu: A Traditional Adivasi Chicken and Rice Delicacy from Jharkhand

Podom jillu, a traditional Adivasi delicacy from Jharkhand's Ho community, features chicken marinated in spices and mixed with soaked rice, then wrapped in sal leaves and roasted over an open fire. This dish, characterized by its smoky flavor and earthy aroma from the sal leaves, is a staple in Adivasi homes and weekly markets, though rarely found in restaurants. Other Adivasi communities, like the Santals, also prepare similar dishes wrapped in sal leaves.
