Kolkata’s popular street food, the Kathi Roll, is a tasty wrap made with spiced chicken kababs and sliced onions rolled inside a soft, flaky paratha. The chicken is marinated in a yoghurt-based mix, cooked with capsicum, and then wrapped in the warm flatbread. It’s full of spicy, tangy, and savoury flavours. A squeeze of lime adds a fresh touch. This classic from Bengali cuisine is part of India’s rich collection of regional recipes and is a great example of Indian street food.

Langcha, also known as Lengcha or Lencha, is a popular Bengali Cuisine sweet made from fried chhena (cottage cheese) dumplings soaked in sweet sugar syrup. The chhena is mixed with mawa, semolina, and flour to form a smooth dough. The dough is then shaped into small pieces and deep-fried until golden. After frying, the langchas are soaked in a cardamom-flavoured sugar syrup, which makes them soft and sweet. It is one of the most delicious dessert recipes and a traditional treat, perfect for special occasions.
