Hing sounds great,never thought about it, will give that effect of eating with Hing-er Kochuri :-) <br />I normally put cumin with other seasonings , followed by coconut small pieces and raisins in the ghee and then add the dal. But I wont use Kasuri methi, it is a flavor spoiler. ( Although I am making Kasuri methi alu now :-))<br />Thanks for the Hing suggestion.<br />Bhalo theko<br /><br />UshnishdaUshnish Ghoshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09727310069092219284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-74145262609882319402009-12-04T02:49:26.693-05:002009-12-04T02:49:26.693-05:00The almonds are a beautiful touch!

Adding Kasturi methi would clash and totally ruin the subtle flavor of coconut.<br /><br />I originally come from north and have moved to Bengal and see that people here love to put things just for the sake of it to ruin the taste. They ruin the taste of classic Bengali food and even other food. Some caterer here kept arguing with me about Dal Makhani getting char magaz and curry leaves. All my life spent with Punjabis here in Delhi and Punjab, I never ever saw these two ingredients added to daal makhani traditionally cooked at dhabas or household.Aruphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08064012474822947810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-14739724631304971072009-12-01T18:47:20.214-05:002009-12-01T18:47:20.214-05:00i like the manteli like the mantelP11https://www.blogger.com/profile/16633386291455740509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-41138640645096706942009-12-01T16:12:28.102-05:002009-12-01T16:12:28.102-05:00aaj shokhale ami bhachilam je cholar dal ami pot k...aaj shokhale ami bhachilam je cholar dal ami pot korini. of bengali dishes, A loves this cholar dal the best. luchi ar kochuri korlei chola dal kortei hoye. almonds sound good!Somahttp://www.ecurry.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-7663761482738301612009-12-01T13:59:11.577-05:002009-12-01T13:59:11.577-05:00mmmmmm must try this!

Got to give this way a try. Almond for coconut is the new in thing so you are right on.indosungodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11556193051268397994noreply@blogger.com
