The Bengali New Year or Nobo Borsho is celebrated on April 14 each year. As we near the Bengali New Year eve, many many Bengalis around the world will be planning and preparing a delicious feast to share with family and friends. It is the first day in the traditional Hindu Bengali Calendar.

The people clean and decorate their houses and make elaborate preparation to welcome the coming Year. They paint patterns on the ground (rangoli) in front of their houses. They usually use flour to make the design on the middle of which they place an earthenware pot, decorated with a red and white swastika considered an auspicious sign. This vessal is filled with holy water and a number of mango leaves to symbolise a prosperous year for the family.

That morning they worship Lakshmi, goddess of wealth. They wear garlands of different types of flowers, like the red orleanders, daisies, roses, hibiscus and marigolds.

Wishing all my Bengali and non-Bengali friends advanced Shuvo Nobo Borsho (Happy Bengali New Year).

Countdown has already begun and only fewdays are left before Nobo Borsho or Poila Boisakh! I know many of my Bengali friends have already finalized their ‘especial’ menu to celebrate the 1stday of Bengali New Year with complete ‘Bangaliana’ (Bengali tradition). But I’m sure there are still few who haven’t even thought of it yet just like me or still searching for the suitable menu for that special day.

Poila Baisakh marks the 14th Anniversary of The Stadel! The Stadel is celebrating the Bengali New Year with a lavish lunch and dinner spread at First Innings – the Multi-cuisine restaurant, Mirage  – The Poolside! Mouth watering, pure and authentic, the Bengali cuisine sees a mix of food from West Bengal and Bangladesh. The menu will be an ode to the Eastern land with the traditional river fish taking center stage cooked with Bengali spices. Savour favourites like Mochar Chop, Panthar Mangsho Do Piyazi, Chingri Malai Curry with Luchis and endless items and round off the meal with Rosogollas and Mishti Doi among other sweets! The wide variety in the menu could make gourmands spoilt for choice.

We were recently invited to try out the offerings of Poila Baisakh special menu at The Stadel.

The Dishes We Had : 

Bengali Sit Down Thali Non Veg 

Aampora Sorbat – Aam pora shorbot is a Bengali classic drink made from the pulp of raw mango. A tangy refreshing soft drink can often make a difference. 

Mochar Chop – Mochar Chop or Banana Flower Cutlet is another famous street food of Kolkata.    Dimer Devil – Dimer devil or deviled egg is boiled egg coated by spicy minced meat.Green Salad – Cucumber, Onion and Tomato Bori Bhaja, Jhurjhure Aloo Bhaja & Beguni – 

Indigenous Bengali delicacy of crunchy sun-dried lentil dumplings, thinly sliced/grated fried potato & mouth-watering fried snack of eggplant Luchi  –   Traditional Bengali style puffed pooris made form All Purpose FlourDhakai Pulao –  This is a very traditional rich item in Bengali cuisine. It is not spicy, and has a light and yummy taste sprinkled with cashewnuts and raisins.Sada Bhaat – Plain cooked Basmati Rice Aam Aada Diye Masoor Dal – Aamer Dal is a Bengali style Green Mango Lentil soup perfect for summer with a hint of Ginger. Chanar Kofta –  It is an age old Bengali vegetarian delicacy. Soft, melt in mouth cottage cheese balls dipped in a finger licking good lightly spiced curry. One of my favourite vegan Bengali dishes.Aloo Jhinge Posto – This is a classic dish from the Bengali Cuisine, that is made from potaoes and ridge gourd, simmered in a poppy seeds curry. My most favourite posto, i love it in any form.  Doi Pona – Katla in a yogurt gravy. It  is a very authentic Bengali preparation served typically at lunch with pulao or white rice on a festive occasion. Prawn Malai Curry – Chingri Macher Malaikari is one of the best Bengali Fish recipes. Undoubtedly it is among the mouth watering ones. A classical preparation with Prawns and flavoured with coconut milk based gravy. Panthar Mangsho Do Piyazi  – Looks genuinely appetizing with extra supplement of onions used lavishly in the dish. It brings out an authentic flavour of mutton, ghee & onion.Sukhno Jeerar Murgir Jhol – A delicious preparation served as a Side Dish. It is a yummy, flavorful and spicy dry gravy masala dish. All masala is very nicely coated to the chicken to make it spicy, flavorful and highly aromatic in taste. Aamsatto Khejurer Chutney – This is a sweet thick chutney which serves in special Bengali occasions. Sweet Chutney made with Dried Mango pulp and dates. Finger licking, tempting gravy.

Papad Bhaja –  We Bengalis really love our papad deep fried and goes best with chutney.  Misti Doi  – A Bengali never ends without at least a spoonful of mishti doi. This dessert prepared from milk and caramelized sugar is a heaven for us. Rajbhog – A delicious sweet prepared with chenna stuffed with mixture of khoya, pista and almonds. But for us, its never required any introduction. 

And Few different dishes from Veg Thali 

Aloo Phulkopir Dalna – Aloo Phulkopir Dalna is a very simple cauliflower curry with potatoes. I adore cauliflower – one of the most underrated veggies – and these spices are of course a wonderful way to make it sing!

Mochar Ghonto –   It is one the most tasty vegetarian dish. A very traditional Bengali recipe famous all over Bengal made out of banana blossom, which is basically a banana flower.

Potoler Dorma – Vegetarian stuffed pointed gourd. A traditional Bengali dish, no onion, no garlic.

This was a Marathon Run at First innings !!

With a sudden nip in the air, and the soft balmy sun caressing everything under it, one can tell that Nobo Borsho is just around the corner. And for us foodies, Nobo Borsho is the one of much awaited feast of the year where gorging on Bengali food comes with no judgement or sin.

To kick-start the Nobo Borsho, check in at The Stadel for lavish Bengali Food spread. It would definitely provide you the feeling of enjoyment and celebrations to enhance the festive spirit.

Keep walking with fascinatingfoodie.
