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 (Maa is from Hoogli and Baba is from Bankura) however, I never liked Posto much! They say at my house, I eat like Thakuma and…
Cucumber Raita | Kheera Raita | Indian Yogurt and Cucumber Salad
Now that summer is here, I have started making Raita almost every day. I use different, veggies, boondi or fruits to make Raita along with Yogurt (or hung curd). I make a big portion for both lunch and dinner. Pasta though not loves Raita (if not made with Pineapple) however, she does not complain when…
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.

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.

“There will be only Pyaz Diye Masoor Dal along with Bhat and Aloo Bhate for Lunch Dolon! Can’t make anything else; not even Mach Bhaja. Please take extra money from me and have something good during the lunch break at university!” Nah I was not happy or felt obliged on that day! To me, it…
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…
Sukhi Urad Dal
It was the last Friday when I I called my house-help from office. I requested her to soak a cup full of Kalai Dal (Dhuli Urad Dal) for around eight hours. I had a plan to make Bedmi Poori which requires soaked Urad Dal to make the stuffing. Can you find anything wrong with this? Believe…
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…
