In love with the flavour of mustard, Bengalis use several types of the seed in their cooking including black and yellow varieties. This, as well as the use of mustard oil and panch phoron, gives their sabzis and gravies a special flavour. Have a go at recipes like Bati Chorichori, Bengali Style Okra, Papaya Tarkari and Baingan Bhaja to experience the magic of Bengali cooking.
When something can be cooked quickly and easily, and is also too tasty to resist, it appeals to everybody! such is the case with the Bengali Style Okra. A fine powder of mustard and poppy seeds lends a unique flavour to this subzi.
