This post reviews Gits Karaisutir Kachori mix. If you cook regularly, I’m sure you may want to take a break sometime and enjoy this ready to cook snack.

In case you cook only occasionally, all the more reason to try it out. I mean, why spend half a day in kitchen preparing kachori when you can do the same using Gits Karaisutir Kachuri Mix in 20 minutes.

When you think about Teddy, what comes to mind? Cute, sweet, soft, friendly, crying shoulder. Think of any good adjective and that becomes descriptive of a Teddy. Usually, guys hate teddies (of course there’re exceptions). I am still to find out why. Any ideas?

Enjoy Paneer Pulao in Rice Cooker on Teddy Day today (don’t ask the relation). On first two days of Valentine’s week, we’ve talked about Matar Paneer Bengali ishtyle and Chocolate Cake.

Enjoy the simplicity.

Valentine Day is just round the corner and the count down has begun. We at Cook Like a Bong are celebrating this week of love with some special recipe just meant for your special one.

The chocolate cake in microwave with a smooth bitter sweet chocolate sauce is just what you would expect to share on this Chocolate Day.

Enjoy the special day with your special one.

About the person who spent so much time to prepare the dish, undertook several hassles made to make it look, smell and taste perfect. Well, you need to wait no more.

CLB is here with the Food Blogger Interview Series to bring the personal side of your fav food bloggers. Part 1 was Jayashree and Part 2 is Bong Mom – a Bong by birth, a mom of two and a wonderful cook. Read more to know her secrets.

A Bong cant be separated from sweets, and not without reason. Sample soft rasogollas or smooth sandesh, and you would know.

Sandesh is of several kinds. This post explains in easy steps how to prepare Strawberry Sandesh, which is a little twisted from the veritable way of preparing you general run of the mill kind sandesh. The curd cheese is sweetened and flavored with fresh strawberry puree to give the light pinkish tinge and the irresistible flavor of this dessert.

Prepare it, have a bite and let me know how you fared. Bon Appetite!
