    This is a delicious spicy curry, full of flavour yet not horrid hot. It was shown to me by my friend from Bangladesh. It makes my taste buds sing. Dedicated to Sanjeeda

     

    An authentic Bangladeshi recipe, not too hot but gently spicy and full of flavour. Best eaten with the fingers, using paratha or chapatti, and beware garlic the next morning! Read More
