Some variants add cheese or [yogurt](/source/Yogurt).[1] Tirit Tirit is based on [cooking techniques](/source/List_of_cooking_techniques) from Central Asia, where similar dishes were prepared using [lamb](/source/Lamb_and_mutton) and [leftovers](/source/Leftovers) of various kinds, often including stale bread; see [kuurdak](/source/Kuurdak). Tirit is sometimes found in the [cuisine of Mecca](/source/Saudi_Arabian_cuisine), where the story is told that the morale of a community hungry from famine brought about by a [drought](/source/Drought) was boosted by being sustained by this dish until the return of times of greater plenty. [Khash](/source/Khash_(dish)) is a similar offal-based dish eaten in many countries in [Eastern Europe](/source/Eastern_European_cuisine), [Western Asia](/source/Middle_Eastern_cuisine), and the southern [Caucasus](/source/Caucasian_cuisine).[2] Similar combinations of offal and grain are found in [haggis](/source/Haggis) and some kinds of [white pudding](/source/White_pudding), which use [oatmeal](/source/Oatmeal) as the starch. The forms of tirit involving cheese are similar to the [barley](/source/Barley)-based [Tibetan](/source/Tibet) staple [tsampa](/source/Tsampa). ## See also - [Food portal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Food) - [Tharid](/source/Tharid) - [Popara](/source/Popara) - [Beshbarmak](/source/Beshbarmak) ## References 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** What is Tirit?
