Joya Medok Doley describes the process of making yumrang or jabor oying. Different types of green leafy vegetables such as tajik, takuk, ombe, mírné koːtung, gurban, and marsang are washed. They have to be rubbed together and rinsed thoroughly. Once the wok is hot, mustard oil is put in there. Once hot, we add panch phoran and onions. A ground mixture of chili, garlic, and onions is added. Any meat can be added. Here, we can see local chicken, which is bred at home, is being cooked. Then, salt and red chili powder are added accordingly. Then, the green leafy vegetables are added to the wok. She says most of the Mising people love to tear the leaves before adding. It is ready to serve after cooking the leaves for 5-10 minutes.
