In the heart of a Durga Puja grand lunch, there is one dish that captures the essence of Bengal—Daab Chingri. Imagine prawns cooked inside a tender coconut, absorbing its sweet, nutty nectar, and then paired with steaming hot rice. It isn’t just a curry; it is an emotion where the flavour literally bursts in your mouth.

Mutton Jhal Farezi is a fiery, flavour-packed dish made by slow-cooking mutton with whole spices, tomatoes, onions, and capsicum. This semi-dry preparation strikes a perfect balance of heat, tang, and richness, with tender chunks of meat coated in a bold masala. Traditionally influenced by Anglo-Indian cooking, it is a hearty, rustic dish that pairs beautifully with any Indian bread or steamed rice.

This Ghee Roast Turkey gives the classic Thanksgiving roast a fiery Indian makeover. The turkey is soaked in a tangy-spicy masala made with roasted chillies, tamarind, and warm ghee. The slow roasting locks in richness and brings out a deep aroma. It’s an indulgent, festive dish perfect for sharing around the holiday table.
