To prepare Takha, buffalo meat (mainly skin, flesh and cartilage from
the head, neck or, rarely, other parts) is cut into medium-sized pieces.
The meat is then fried in mustard oil and mixed with finely ground
spices. The mixture is then hard boiled for an hour or longer in plenty
of water. Usually, while preparing Takha, some extra amount of soup is
made and extracted for making Sanya Khuna. When frozen, Takha itself
should have almost equal parts of meat and soup jelly.
