“Papa; Momma is making Chaler Payesh” I smiled listening to my five-years-old. She loves Chaler Payesh. Though at home we simply call this delicacy Payesh (without prefixing it with Rice or Chal).

Aam Kola Doi Chire Makha; the bowl full of comfort from both the houses I call home!
Mehebub was horrified when I told him what my new blog post is about! A true blue Bengali one-pot meal and I believe one of the most underrated ones!

Not that I am going to write about anything fancy or complicated instead it is something quintessentially Bengali; nothing…
