Tagore Household's Prawn Jhalfrezi | ঠাকুরবাড়ির চিংড়ির ঝালফ্রেজি | Rabindranath Tagore Era Recipe
Did you know that the cuisine of the Tagore household was influenced by European food traditions? While traditional Bengali meals were served during the day, European-style dining was often preferred at night. One such fascinating recipe is Thakurbarir Chingrir Jhalfrezi, a refined version of the colonial-era Jhalfrezi that found its place in the Tagore household.
This recipe is adapted from Thakurbarir Ranna by Purnima Thakur, published by Ananda Publishers. Today, we recreate this unique historical dish with prawns, aromatic roasted spices, beresta, and fresh lemon juice.
