Panch Phoron Murgi is my way of giving a little twist to the good old everyday Bengali chicken curry aka Murgir Jhol at home. Chandana di, our cook is responsible for making the breakfast and also the lunch which mostly Pasta and her nanny eat and also our parents whenever they are at our place….
Murgi Khichuri | Murgir Mangshor Khichuri
Are you wondering why I am sharing the recipe of Murgi Khichuri just after the recipe of Bhuni Khichuri? The reason is quite simple. These days we are mainly living on one-pot meals especially dishes that can be cooked in a pressure cooker within no-time. After the marathon pujo cooking, I am taking a break…
Niramish Bhuni Khichuri | Bengali Bhuni Khichuri
Durga Pujo special Bhuni Khichuri recipe is finally here on the day before Kojagari Laxmi Puja. It is been a month or so I have not written a recipe on the blog. The last two months were quite busy both work-wise and also for the gormei feast, a special event I was part of as…
Sheer Khurma
I have not been writing and updating the blog in the last months. In fact, I wrote the last blogpost halfheartedly. It was then I decided to opt for a break and I have given a month’s time to me to think clearly. Today, in the morning of Eid al-Adha I have opened the blog…
Gota Roshun diye Mangshor Jhol (Bengali Mutton Curry with Garlic Pod)
I am here with another Mangshor Jhol Recipe. Yes, even after having different versions of Bengali Mutton Curry recipes on the blog, I couldn’t help but write this recipe of Gota Roshun diye Mangshor Jhol! A simple Bengali style mutton curry cooked with whole garlic and it tastes different than regular Bengali mutton curry! In…
Chettinad Egg Curry aka Chettinad Muttai Masala
All through the lockdown period eggs were easily available in Kolkata. Needless to say, I have used eggs very often in the kitchen. The eggs are very easy to use while making a curry for lunch or dinner and also a very good breakfast option in different forms. I have used eggs while making dessert…
Doodh Sooji aka Mohanbhog aka Suji
I never liked Doodh Sooji until recently. In fact, I did not cook it since long. Or it is better to say, I never cooked it before just because I don’t like this Bengali dessert. Growing up in a Ghoti household in Central Kolkata, Dudh Suji was like a staple. Our dinner was never completed…
Halwai Style Balushahi!
It’s been long I was craving for the halwai style Balushahi. Needless to say, it is not possible to order the famous Indian sweetmeat during the lockdown. Though in Kolkata, Swiggy and Zomato services are available, however, offerings are for sure limited. This is when I decided to make it at home! It took me…
Kolkata Biryani Masala
It is been long the readers of my blog and the viewers of my IGTV, as well as youtube channel, are requesting the video recipe of the Calcutta Biryani. It took me ten years to come up with the Kolkata Mutton Biryani post. Needless to say, I did not give much thought to the video…
Paneer er Dalna | Niramish Paneer Er Torkari
Personally, Paneer is not a favorite! I prefer Channa, however, the daughter loves Paneer and hence, Paneer er Dalna is the adjustment between us! This justification is needed as I already have Chanar Dalna recipe on the blog. Hence, I must write why this separate recipe again! The reason behind the same is quite simple….
