what is ponk nagar?
Well, looks like you have not tried (eat) Ponk? Ponk is a roasted young/tender Juvar dana (seeds). They are roasted and removed from the husk. Ponk is eatedn with chteny and chhas (butter milk) and spicy ponk-vada. You will love it. I have eaten in USA as some Ponk lovers try their luck here by planing Jawar in their back yard!
There was a place near Rander for this delicacy and now there land is free city decided to make a PonkNagar so that you can enjoy every year otherwise land is so expensive you won’t find chula place to roast ponk. this dedicated land secure the future of ponk makers and lovers!
