Buz Wangun is usually cooked as a side dish. However, this dish too has a cultural background. It is cooked on the occasion of ‘Pan’, a religious function held in the month of September to propitiate Lord Ganesha during Ganapati festival in Maharashtra. On this day, ‘Raoth’ (sweet puri type) is prepared and offered to God. A folk tale on the significance of the Puja is often recited on the occasion by the elderly lady of the house and prayers held for prosperity of the household.

With ‘Roath, people make regular roti or ‘duwari phulka’. Buza Wangun is served with ‘duwari phulka’
