Also its summer now am planning this for lunch with Hilsa bhaape, mutton curry moong dal, and rice. <br /><br />Thanks!<br />bhromorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12966202172120835538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-44134239774441062662014-01-21T05:40:32.857-05:002014-01-21T05:40:32.857-05:00thank u for sharing this simple and tasty recipe.....thank u for sharing this simple and tasty recipe....i m planning to cook this today for dinner. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00801157808151519866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-90405404022932887682014-01-09T17:40:31.726-05:002014-01-09T17:40:31.726-05:00Sandeepa, I LOVE your blog!

Puro nirimishi. A white gravy would also be a welcome change. Then we'll need to use whole gram masala, not the powder and replace the red chilli wwith split green ones. Cashew paste for a richer gravy. One interesting point to note is that the Bengali version of gram masala is quite different from the packaged ones like Everest. Check the package for ingredients and you'llll know:-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03641096962329046106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-67546586600737968832012-11-30T00:04:07.919-05:002012-11-30T00:04:07.919-05:00shob step korechilam .. dekhi abar try korbo .. re...shob step korechilam .. dekhi abar try korbo .. recipe ta bhishon intersting and gravy tao bhalo hoyechilo khete .. mone hoy bombay r kopi guloi paaji .. thanks for your reply <br /><br />arekta kotha .. ma ke tomar rannar ar lekhar golpo kori khub .. ekhon abar ranna kore, khete diye ma amake jiggesh kore " ki re Sandeepa r moto hoyeche ?
