Kosha Mangsho

A very popular dish is Bengal which is full of flavors. I tried it for the first time when I visited a Bengali friends place and was totally in love with it. Its a spicy mutton curry traditionally made by slow cooking mutton in iron cast wok which gives it that amazing blackish- brown color. I did not have the iron cast wok so I did it in a normal wok and pressure cooked the mutton to save time. This is my version of the mutton curry. Do try it out and let me know how it turns out :) Ingredients  For Marination  1/2 kg Mutton  2 Tbsp Curd  1 Tsp Turmeric Powder 1-1/2 Tsp Chili Powder 1 Tbsp Ginger-garlic Paste  Salt to taste For the curry 2-3 Tbsp of Clarified butter/ Oil (You can use mustard oil if available) 2 Red Chilies  4-5 Peppercorns  4 Cloves  1 inch Cinnamon  2 Big Onions (sliced) 1/2 Tsp Sugar 1 Tsp Ginger-Garlic Paste  1 Potato (Cut into 4 big chunks) 1 Tsp of Red Chilli powder 1/2 Tsp Turmeric Powder Sal

Cheese Corn Balls/ Cheese Corn Cutlets / Cheese Balls


Cheese corn balls are a perfect starter/appetiser for any party. This is a starter which is loved by people of all age group.
Sweet corn, cheese and capsicum with a little chili flakes and oregano is one of the best combination.
Cheese corn balls can be done by making a coarse paste of sweet corns or simply by adding corn kernels to the mixture.Similarly when you stuff the cheese you can stuff direct cheese cubes inside them or grated cheese. I get ready made grated mix cheese so I prefer using the mix cheese. You can use any cheese as per your convenience although mozzarella cheese gives best results   

Ingredients

  • 3 Boiled Potatoes medium sized
  • 1 Cup Sweet Corns (boiled)
  • 1 Capsicum (finely chopped)

  • Mix all the above ingredients well and form small balls of the mixture 

  • Fatten the balls and add some grated cheese in the center. Cover it from all the sides, by gently roll it between your palm and form round balls



  • Refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes 
  • In a separate bowl, add corn flour, maida and water and mix it well. See that no lumps are formed 

  • Dip the balls in the batter and quickly roll and coat them with the bread crumbs from all the sides
