There is a saying “By choosing healthy over skinny, you are choosing self-love over self-judgement.” by Steve Maraboli In other words, the deliciousness and nutritional value of homemade crispy & crunchy Walnuts, red apple and Chicken Salad is so healthy and fulfilling. Addition of shredded parmesan cheese, one tea-spoon of olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, sugar and pepper, and a dash of mustard sauce, honey and lemon juice made it taste so refreshing. Garnished with finely chopped fresh coriander leaves and green chilies. . . #salad #chicken #apple #walnut #homemadefood #homecooking #homecook #homechef #foodie #cooking #instacooking #food #instafood #foodphotography #foodfood #foodporn #foodgasm #foodceleb #foodblogger #shoutout #instagram #healthyfood #kolkatafoodie #kolkatafoodbloggers #indianfood #indianfoodbloggers #kolkatasutrafood #bongconnection #nonvegetarian #calcuttacacophony (at Kolkata The City Of Joy) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9Q03sJFgH3/?igshid=1dsffw2cqd4a3

🙏💐 জ্ঞান দাও ভক্তি দাও বিদ্যা দাও বুদ্ধি দাও মায়ের কাছে এই কামনা করি সবাই মিলে💐🙏 . . Saraswati Puja and bhoger niramish khichuri always has a serious relationship. In fact Durga Puja, Lakshmi Puja also share the similar relationship status with our lovingly moong dal khichdi. But those pujas are performed by adults only whereas Devi Saraswati is solely for children and youngsters. So the celebration mainly evolves around their educational institutes. Students decorate the houses, perform extra curriculum activities, serve Prasad and do all possible arrangements in guidance of teachers/adults. Probably this the first big step towards the responsibility in our small carefree student life.This Niramish Moong Daal khichudi is served with Beguni, Goyna Bori bhaja, Labra, Aloor Dom, Mixef Fruit Chatni and Misti. . . #bengalifood #bengalicuisine #cooking #bengalicooking #homecooking #foodie #homemadefood #homecook #homechef #food #foodfood #foodporn #foodgasm #foodphotography #foodceleb #shoutout #foodblogger #kolkatafoodbloggers #kolkatafoodie #indianfoodbloggers #indianfood #instafood #instacooking #instagram #bongconnection #vegetarian #kolkatasutrafood #calcuttacacophony #saraswatipuja #celebration (at Kolkata The City Of Joy) https://www.instagram.com/p/B75tbZxFhR3/?igshid=1x53j88bhjvhw

Panna Cotta (Vanilla ) : We all love ice-creams, right ? The cooked cream tastes equally elegant. I'm talking about Panna cotta, a molded chilled dessert made of fresh cream, gelatin added with different kinds of flavours, like, vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, coffee and many more. It's popular throughout Italy, however, this one is a homemade Vanilla flavoured Panna Cotta prepared at my home in Bengal 🥰. It's easy to make and can be prepared in no time. 4-5 hours of refrigeration chilling is more than enough for the Panna Cotta to wobble perfectly. It looks and tastes wonderful with ripe red fruits such as raspberries, strawberries, or sweet cherries. I love garnishing with Kiwis as well 🥝 🍓 . . #pannacotta #italiancuisine #dessert #cream #fruits #vanilla #cooking #homecooking #homecook #homechef #homemadefood #food #foodfood #foodporn #vegan #foodgasm #foodphotography #foodie #foodceleb #shoutout #instafood #instacooking #instagram #foodblogger #kolkatafoodbloggers #kolkatafoodie #bongconnection #indianfoodbloggers #calcuttacacophony #kolkatasutrafood (at Kolkata The City Of Joy) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7fUUiIFNMy/?igshid=123v4tj43imwc

Litti Chokha: One of the most popular dishes of Bihari cuisine, Litti Chokha is a once in a lifetime experience that a person must have. It’s a traditional dish prepared for lunch and is made using whole wheat flour with a stuffing of roasted gram flour, which is otherwise known as sattu. This part is known as litti and is immersed in ghee. The litti is generally a little hard and the ghee makes it a little soft to chew. 🍪🍪 This litti is enjoyed with chokha, which is the Bihari version of bharta and is prepared using eggplant/brinjal, tomato, garlic, ginger, onions, green chilies, fresh coriander leaves and msdyhed potato along with a few spices. 🌶️🌶️ The only important thing that one must adhere to is to make the litti in a correct way as some people make it too hard or too soft. Traditionally roasted on hot charcoal, the litti can be made in a lot of ways i.e., oven-roasted or tandoor grill and even tawa roast. So, one can choose the cooking method as per their own choice. I always prefer tawa roast. Served with pickled onions, lemon rings and tangy green chutney made of a blend of fresh coriander & mint leaves, green chilies, garlic, lemon juice, black salt, chat masala, tamarind pulp, Kasundi and salt & sugar to taste. Garnished with coriander leaves and green Chili. 🥗 . . #biharicuisine #bengalicooking #foodie #cooking #homecooking #homecook #homechef #homemadefood #vegan #food #foodfood #foodporn #instagram #foodceleb #foodgasm #instafood #pleaseshoutout #foodphotography #foodblogger #indianfoodbloggers #kolkatafoodie #kolkatafoodbloggers #indianfood #kolkatasutrafood #bongconnection #calcuttacacophony #thecalcuttatalkies #cookpadindia #vegetarian #healthyfood https://www.instagram.com/p/B7I0D6SF933/?igshid=155mzm6tfkynl

Kakrar Jhaal : (Bengali Style Crab Curry) Kakrar Jhaal or Bengali style Crab curry is the most common preparation of crab in almost every Bengali household. Crab meat is super tasty and if you are a seafood lover you’ll definitely love Crab curry recipe in Bengali style. 🦀🦀🦀 This Bengali style crab curry is popularly eaten during the winter months in Bengal. Because small fresh water crabs are commonly available in abundance in the local fish markets during this time of the year. Though it definitely takes time to crack the exoskeleton to reach that tasty meat! But, the reward is manifold! Moreover, it’s a tedious process to clean a crab & to eat it yet that delicious meat hiding inside the exoskeleton is enough to make you cook this Indian crab curry more often! So, its always better to be prepared to invest a good amount of time to relish Bengali Style Kakrar Jhaal! This Bengali crab curry is cooked with few spices & consists of less gravy. This is just to make the crab meat flavor shine through the curry sauce. The spices are almost same as we cook Bengali style prawn curry. The only difference between cooking of crab and prawn is, cleaning of crabs is a very tedious process. Rest all are same. Potatoe chunks can be used in this curry, but I've not used it. Kakrar Jhaal is best enjoyed with steamed rice. . . #bengalifood #bengalicuisine #cooking #bengalicooking #homecooking #foodie #homemadefood #homecook #homechef #food #foodfood #foodporn #foodgasm #foodphotography #foodblogger #crab #foodceleb #pleaseshoutout #instagram #instafood #instacooking #indianfood #indianfoodbloggers #kolkatafoodie #kolkatafoodbloggers #kolkatasutrafood #calcuttacacophony #bongconnection #thecalcuttatalkies #cookpadindia (at Kolkata The City Of Joy) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7DUqgclGR0/?igshid=16mn4crc2zd77
