Luchi, Narkel diye cholar Dal, Dantiwala Begun Bhaja, Rosigolla!

Cooking vegetarian food especially the no-onion no-garlic ones are challenging for me, always.

I can make a comforting non-vegetarian dish within no time, however, when it comes to vegetarian food I take my time; I think and then I cook the food realizing I can't cook vegetarian.

Cholar dal is a bengali style niramish or veg chana dal recipe which perfectly goes with luchi, kochuri, dal puri or even radhaballavi.
