The Tripuris are essentially nonvegetarians and hence the main courses are mainly prepared using meat, but with the addition of vegetables. Traditional Tripuri cuisine is known as ''Mui Borok''. Tripuri food has a key ingredient called ''Berma'' which is a small, oil-pasted and dry fermented fish. The foods are considered to be healthy as they are usually prepared mostly without oil. <br /> [[File:Tripuri cusine.jpg|thumb|Basic Tripuri thali]]<br /> Tripuri food such as bangui rice and fish stews, ''Muya'' ([[Bamboo shoot]]), local fishes, vegetables, herbs, ''Batema'' (this jelly-like food is prepared by making a paste of ''Batema plant's'' corm or tuber ([[Elephant foot yam]]) with sodium powder and water to remove its [[raphide]].
