Quick Delicious Prawns

Due to our diet and erratic cooking habits we always try to find the fastest way to cook food – be it chicken, fish or prawns. It’s been quite a few time, Sumi cooked prawns with the shell on. To be frank, I have never been a huge fan of prawn, leave alone cooking it [...]

Palak Stew with Fresh Cream

Egg Roll

Egg Roll

We love eggs. I guess post marriage the amount of eggs we have eaten is greater than my entire egg consumption before marriage. One of the primary reason being the simple manner in which we can cook it. Another reason being the various preparation we can have with them. Who would have thought a simple round thing can be so tasty *yum* Okay I am going way out of topic. The recipe I am sharing today is very simple and one of the most widely consumed snack in Bengal. Especially during the festive Durga Puja seasons, if you walk even 100 metres I am sure you will find at least 5-6 egg roll stalls.

Bread Poha

Bread Poha

Well its been a long time and we have not added any recipe. One of the reason being Sumi and me being on a low-carb diet. Since its really a challenge to do it in Indian cuisine leave alone Bengali, we had to invent lots of dishes. I mean not invent but rather bend them to our tastes. One of the major problems of a low carb diet is what everyone calls a carb crash. Its just a good way of saying I cant take it anymore :) Well we had it too. And when we had it one such day we thought of having our all time favorite snack. There are various ways of making Poha. But we prefer having it with Bread, the reason being its easy to make. Oh and did I say its tasty :D
