Sticky rice or bora saul is a part of  Assamese cuisine.  Sticky rice is basically used in making different snacks (pithas)  during Bihu festivities. I like to eat sticky rice in breakfast.  Sticky rice is served with milk, cream, yogurt and jaggery. But I like to eat sticky rice with vegetables (Sabji).
