It was Mehebub who told me to cook Posto Magsho last Sunday. I personally am not a big fan of this dish however the rest of the family loves it. While they had it, I ended on having a light Chicken curry with rice. Posto aka Poppy Seed is one of the widely used spice…
Kasundi Ilish (Hilsa cooked with Bengali Mustard Sauce Kasundi)
Debjanir Rannaghar has always been about easy recipes or at times complicated recipes with easy processes. All these years, I have tried to record the tried and tested recipes in the easiest way possible so that people can try the recipes without any complication. The recipe I am going to share today is something mother…
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. In fact, my winter pop-up menu was also having the Komlalebur Payesh as dessert. I clicked the pictures during the pop up only. However, I did not post the recipe of Komola Kheer…
Bhapa Chingri aka Bengali Chingri Bhapa
“If I purchase medium-sized fresh Prawns; will one coconut be enough for 500g prawns? You are not going to make Chingri Macher Malai Kari with medium-sized prawns I suppose. In fact, these prawns must not be used in making Chingrir Jhal as well! How about Bhapa Chingri Debjani?” One thing I realized Mehebub is now…
Mangshor Jhol (Bengali light Mutton curry)
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…
Bou Khuda (Boua Pulao or Bou Khudi)
“Boudi why this name Bou Khuda?” Rosie asked while posing as my hand model. I was clicking a bowl full of Boua Pulao and Rosie was helping me out as my beloved hand model. Without giving me the time to answer she asked again; “I understand why you love clicking Pasta’s hand while capturing the…

It is been Long when we have had it with steamed rice.” this was me to Mehebub upon seeing fresh Mullet aka Parshe mach at Patuli floating market a few days…
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…
