Bukhyas

A plate of food, where the food has been shaped into individual, bite-size pieces. It is most commonly used by Gujarati Indian women, talking to their children, when they are learning to eat on their own for the first time. The group of individual food pieces are called Bukhyas, each individual piece is called a Bukhyu.
