Paknam, a delicacy of the Meitei is often found in shops which sells singzu.. Paknam is made by mixing all the vegetables, besan and ngari, salt to taste and pepper. The mixture is then put on a banana leaf and then steamed. Paknam is a healthy delicacy as it is made up of vegetables only.
Pafor makak:- pafor means papad in Hindi. It is also available in singzu shops. It is often mixed with singzu. Apart from singzu shops, you'll get pafor makak in any small shops in any locality. The packet is for 5 bucks only.
Tosh:- it is made up of maida and bread. Tosh is available in any shops which sells tan, it is mostly prepared as requested by the customer. I had the tosh at a cha-hotel in Khwairamband Bazar. It is a long forgotten snacks of the Meiteis.
