Mr.Ogre and family!

It is quite usual to notice that the word ogre is used extensively for rice preparations!
Like with my previous post 'Puliyogre'. The word 'Ogre'[pronounced as o-grey] means 'bath' in Bengali and the North Eastern India and generally 'Chawal' in the Northern India.
In Karnataka also it is 'bath' for rice preparations. Besides, its is also called as 'Chitra anna'[ I am sorry not enough data to substantiate its origin!:)))]
'Ogre'-various preparations using rice as it major component!
I have written to you the head of the family- Mr. Ogre[Puliyogre].
I will during the course of time introduce you to the other members of the family!
Take care
Ciao!
