The dish, known as ohn no khao swè, originated in Burma, and came to East India with Indians who migrated from Burma during World War II. It is associated with street food in India. The Memon community of Pakistan also adapted this dish, likely coinciding with the emigration of South Asians from Burma in the 1960s, and is now a representative Memon dish now known as khausa.
