Muri Ghonto is one of the signature dishes from the Bengali Cuisine. We cook it with Rice and Fish head (mostly Rohu Fish/ Rui Mach or Katla fish). Muri stands for Head. We mostly savor it with plain rice. Ghonto is a mushy side dish. It is a basic fish head fried and cooked with rice along with a melange of spices which gives it scrumptious flavors.

Muri ghonto is a traditional dish of Bengali cuisine. Muri or muro stands for head. Muri ghonto is a mishmash of rice, potatoes, cauliflower, fish head (mostly katla/rohu head).

#goldenapron23#week2Muri Ghonto is a traditional and authentic Bengali dish where the rohu /katla fish head is fried and cooked with flavorful Gobindobhog Rice. Any other aromatic short grain rice or Basmati Rice may be used also. It is a popular recipe originating from the State of Bengal and served as a side dish with hot rice in lunch or dinner.

#dinner - Muri Ghonto is traditionally cooked with fish head and some rice in a typical Bengali style. A local rice variety called Gobindo Bhog is used in this recipe, but in the absence of it, I used basmati rice. So let me share a vegetarian version made with cauliflower and following the same method. It turned out real yummy. The quantity of rice can be adjusted according to individual preference. I gave a tempering of bay leaves, whole garam masala and cumin seeds in mustard oil. The end product was flavoured with garam masala powder and ghee for some lingering aroma. Enjoy it as a side dish with either rice or chapatis.

It a traditional Bengali food. Very tasty.

#Dec #w1 - 'Thor' in the Bengali lingo or 'Banana Stem' is a wonderful veggie which has a lot of essential nutrients, health benefits, is good for weight loss and in lowering high blood pressure. This stem can be turned into various delicious recipes. So here comes 'Thor Muri Ghonto', which means Banana Stem cooked with Rice. Muri Ghonto recipe is usually prepared with Fish Head and some Rice. However, I substituted fish head with Banana Stem. This fusion dish turned out very yummy. I gave a tempering of bay leaf, cumin seeds and whole garam masalas and cooked with cashew paste, milk and other spices for a creamy texture. The medium of cooking was of course mustard oil and I finished it off with some garam masala and ghee to enhance the flavour. It is best relished with steamed rice, chapattis or parathas.
