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…
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…

Motichur Ladoo | Motichur Laddu | Motichoor Laddu
After battling with chickenpox for more than 15 days I have no plan to make any special dish on Diwali this year.

Komola Kheer | Kheer Komola | Bengali Orange Kheer | Komlalebur Payesh
Komola Kheer aka Kheer Komola is a famous Bengali winter special dessert. Last winter I made it several times at Debjanir Rannaghar.

Mangshor Jhol (Bengali light Mutton curry) in a Pressure Cooker!
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…
