Why do I need a recipe separately for Mangshor Jhol when I already have Kochi Pathar Jhol on my blog? Well, why not when Kochi Pathar Jhol is all about the lean meat chunks from a smaller goat and that makes Mangshor Jhol different from the Kochi Pathar jhol! I do not imagine my portion of…
Narkeli Jam Pitha
The recipe I am going to share today is a family favorite I learned from my MIL. Easy to make Pitha, Narkeli Jam Pitha is my Makar Sankranti special post here at Debjanir Rannaghar. Pasta decided to pose with the Pitha and it was a complete mess while shooting my moody little thing. She was full…
Rosh Bora (Fritters served with Runny Sugar/ Jaggery syrup) | Bengali Rosh Bora recipe
“Pasta seems your mother decided to not to make Pithe this year. We have not had Rosh Bora even!” “Hmmmmm Papa” “Pasta do you even know what Pithe is?” “No Papa!” “Then why that Hmmmmm? You are just like your mother! Hmm is your favorite phrase whenever you think you don’t need to answer! “Hmmmmm…
Methi Murgh Malai
Believe me or not I was in a dilemma whether to write the recipe of Methi Murgh Malai or to write something else as part of this post! Whether to do things which I am not comfortable with! Whether to stop improving the blog every day! Another and the most important thought; whether to write…
Gota Moshlar Mangsho | Kata Moshlar Mangsho | Mutton cooked with whole spices
“It is Gota Moshlar Mangsho, not Kata Moshlar Mangsho!” This was me! “You don’t know anything! Maa always refer it as Kata Moshlar Mangsho, not Gota Moshlar Mangsho!” This was my worse half while managing the Marrowbone from Mangsho I cooked for his birthday. The banter over the Bengali mutton curry was quite interesting however, I decided…
Hyderabadi Double ka Meetha
“Hey, are you making Double ka Meetha for my birthday dinner! Oh No!” this was the birthday boy (my worse half) upon knowing there will be double ka Meetha for dinner! I was quite shocked seeing his reaction. As much as I know this is one of his favorite desserts. I, in fact, make it quite…
Chaler Payesh aka Bengali Rice Kheer
“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). This was the day of Soptomi and I was cooking Payesh in bulk like every year. I was relaxed and cooking it with…
Dak Bungalow Chicken Curry aka Chicken Dak Bungalow
I was planning to write about Dak Bungalow Chicken Curry since long; however, I was a bit confused with the available resources and details. Every single recipe available was claiming to be authentic! I never had this dish of chicken while growing up. In fact, I for the first time had Dak Bungalow Chicken Curry aka Chicken…
Chicken Chaap; Chaap Bhaja, the perfect companion for Kolkata Biryani
It was the night before eid; I and Mehebub returned from the office at around 9:30 and therefore, both were dog-tired. Both were, needless to say, eagerly waiting to spend time with Pasta. One thing was good that my office was closed for Eid however, Mehebub had to go. I was planning for the Eid feast…
Luchi! Not just a type of flatbread but….
Luchi is emotion or emotion is Luchi! The Bengali middle-aged woman torturing the poor husband by rationing the number of Luchi on a Sunday morning by reminding him of the blood pressure! The Bengali middle-class husband feeding the wife a puffed luchi while she is busy making the same for the entire family. After all,…
