“Hey we are not in Kolkata and I want to have Kolkata Mutton Biryani! Can we make some?” If you love me; you will give me the Nolir Har from your Mutton Biryani!” (Nolir Har is the heavenly marrow bone) “Hey, I am feelling blue! It was a tough day at the office! Can we…
Anglo-Indian Bread and Butter Pudding
I remember having Bread and Butter Pudding for the first time at Krishna Mashi’s place. More than that I remember the entire process of making it. We didn’t have an OTG while growing up. Needless to say, cake or pudding was not something we used to have on a regular basis. There was a round…
Bangladeshi Kala Bhuna | Beef Kala Bhuna | Kalo Bhuna Recipe
After 4 sets of trial and error, I ended on documenting the Beef Kala Bhuna Recipe around two months back. However, I have not posted the recipe then. This was kept in stock so that I can come up with a Ramadan special recipe 🙂 . It is been long I was trying to make…

Posto Mangsho (Bengali Mutton Curry cooked with Poppy Seed Paste)
It was Mehebub who told me to cook Posto Magsho last Sunday. I try to not to cook Posto Mangsho unless there is a request! I though am a Ghoti (Both my parents are from Hooghly) however, I never liked Posto much! They say at my house, I eat like Thakuma and I cook like…

The recipe I am going to share today is something mother…
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…
Piajkoli ar Aloo diye Tangra Macher Jhol (Bengali Light fish curry prepared with Tyangra Maach, Onion Stalks and Potato)
“May you please cut a few potatoes and I also need a few Piajkoli. Please pick from the flower-vase and cut into long strips and Rosie defrost a few Tangra Mach too!” I disconnected the call after letting my house-help know what all I needed to cook Piajkoli ar Aloo diye Tangra Macher Jhol. Rosie did…
