puḵẖtarī(from puḵẖta), s.f. Cakes, or pieces of bread, which are laid over dishes when bringing to table, and under which the meat is kept warm; cakes imbued with ghīor clarified butter (from being laid over certain greasy dishes, as do-piyāza, etc.: These cakes are very soft, rich, and savoury; and hence māmāpuḵẖtariyāṅkhānā, 'to eat rich meal cakes prepared by his mother,' is a phrase employed to denote one who is accustomed to luxury, and incapable of labour or fatigue).
Origin: Persian
