I was googling the shukto recipe just to have a look as I want to make it this week and came accross your recipe. My mom used to have radhuni as phoron and drumstick as a must ingredient. She added sweet potato too which I loved and always add it when I make shukto here. I like it with gravy too. Didin't know that it's suppose to be eaten at lunch, we always eat it in dinner (as we eat rice in dinner). Thanks for the simple recipe again.<br /><br />SomaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-2599420013978621222010-09-15T08:11:59.123-04:002010-09-15T08:11:59.123-04:00Mom always said, we shouldn't eat teto after s...Mom always said, we shouldn't eat teto after sundown... not sure why...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-69679678610796049692010-09-15T08:11:31.071-04:002010-09-15T08:11:31.071-04:00Mom always said, we shouldn't eat teto after s...Mom always said, we shouldn't eat teto after sundown... not sure why...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-42863255883964094172010-08-21T14:38:33.517-04:002010-08-21T14:38:33.517-04:00Anon
