Koraishutir Tacos with Aloo Dum!
Koraishutir Tacos is my modern rendition of the traditional fresh peas fried flatbread.
Shaped like the ubiquitous Mexican Tacos, the black beans are replaced with my home
concocted potato vegetable aka Aloo Dum and garnished with vinegar-soaked onions and
ginger!
Designed to be served as a filling appetizer or even main course, it caters to a multitude of
palates due to its Indo-western avatar. A visual delight, this one is sure to hit the right spot in
terms of both flavor and texture.
Koraishutir or Matarshuti is the Bengali name for fresh peas, and traditional Kachauris made
with them is a winter delicacy in Bengal. Deep-fried in gallons of oil, this ancient recipe has
been passed on for generations and continues to be relished with a variety of
accompaniments.
I hope you create unforgettable winter memories with family, friends and Koraishutir Tacos!

Broccoli or mini trees as my kids call it, is surely a nutrition powerhouse with few calories. A cruciferous vegetable family member which includes the likes of Kale, Brussel sprouts, Bok Choy etc. has calcium almost at par with milk and contains abundant cancer-fighting compounds.
Kasundi is a grainy mustard from Bengal bearing a typical pungency, one comparable to the Japanese Wasabi. It blends beautifully with this recipe giving the bland Malai broccoli a distinct and inimitable flavour!
My Kasundi Malai broccoli is a scrumptious recipe which sets the stage for winter month barbecues… The distinct texture of broccoli and complimenting flavours of the malai (cream) marination and Kasundi unleashes a whole new experience in your mouth!!!
