Prawns steamed in coconut mustard gravy is a traditional Bengali cuisine.Chingri Bhaape as known popularly takes only 5-6 minutes to cook.
The overpowering rich flavour of mustard and mustard oil is mellowed by adding coconut and curd.Some also add poppy seed paste with it.The taste of steamed prawns is divine and best enjoyed with rice.
