Zucchini and Pumpkin Ghonto

Do you know the dish Ghonto? Like Muri Ghonto(with fish head), Badakopi Ghonto(with cabbage) or Lau Ghonto(with bottle gourd). Ghonto is nothing but simple vegetarian or non- vegetarian recipe with the use of less spices. Most popular dish in Bengal. Here I made Zucchini & Pumpkin Ghonto same as Lau or Loki(bottle gourd ) Ghonto. In my childhood my mom used to make this with Bori Or Badi (dry lentil dumplings). Here I used small prawns instead of Bori , but if you don't eat prawn you can skip it . It is completely optional.

Bengali Style Chena Kofta Curry (Chanar Borar Dalna)

We all know that Bengalis are fond of fish curry and rice. But some of the few dishes in Bengali cuisines are pure vegetarian . Mostly these dishes prepare on some festivals/Puja . In my household I prepare it many times without any occasion . My family loves to eat paneer or chena twice or thrice in a week . But nowadays, I don't get enough time to cook varieties because something new has added in my life. As per I know my passion is cooking, so whenever I'll cook something different or occasional food, I will share with you. This time very common and prepare in every Bengali household ,I am going to share with you. In Bengali we called it Chanar Borar Dalna which is a little sweeter in taste because we Bengali loves to sprinkle some sugar in every Bengali dish  ,we feel that it tastes good . 

Creamy Mustard Pomfret
