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)

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…

Strawberry Banana Smoothie
Okay, I try to find different ways to make the little one have fruits. Not that she does not like fruits or that she is a fussy-eater, however at times it is really difficult to feed her the healthy food. This is the point where comes the healthy treats. The girl loves chilled beverages and…
Chana Bhapa
“Momma, can I have some Chana Bhapa? ” Pasta asked the day before rather innocently! “Why do you want to eat Bhapa Chana all of a sudden! Moreover, we don’t have chana available. Not that I cannot make it at home” I replied while packing her tiffin and my lunch for the office. “There’s chana…
