Dimer Hingi.
Farm Eggs. No onions. No garlic. The perfume of ginger. The heat of chillies. And that sublime whiff of asafoetida.
Divine !!

New post is up on the blog !
But there was some Thursdays that were more special than the others.
And today is one such, the first Thursday of the month of Ogrohayon, a day when Grandma celebrated her much-cherished Nobanno Pujo.
As she handed us bowls of delectable Nobanno, Grandma would remind us of the benevolent bounty of Mother Nature.
It’s a day, her voice still rings in my ears, to celebrate fresh harvest. To welcome new produce. To pledge that we should never take Mother Earths munificence for granted.
To read more and try this recipe , direct link is updated in bio.

Supremely excited this evening, any guesses what we are preparing for ?
Does the fact that the month of Kartik just took a bow and Agrahayan quietly tiptoed in ring a bell ?

Impatient, fidgety, restless and not finding anyth

Impatient, fidgety, restless and not finding anything else to occupy myself with, I balance myself on one foot. Then put that foot down and try to balance myself on the other foot.
Maa pokes me. Hard.
I make a face.
She returns a frown.
I know I shall not win this contest.
Grandma comes to my rescue.
What did you wish for ? She asks me in a hushed tone.
That I be rich, I respond in a flash.
You never pray for wealth, Grandma asserts.
But you told me she is the Goddess of Prosperity and Wealth, I counter.
Yes, but you never ask for riches. Grandma patiently explains with a smile. You ask for health. And you ask for knowledge and wisdom. Wealth shall follow on its own.

Kheerer Sandesh.
Loving reduced milk fudge. Just a hint of green cardamom. The original Sandesh before the Portuguese introduced us to the magic of chhana ?
