!! চিংড়ি ভর্তা !! **Chingri Bhorta 🦐🌶️**
Chingri Bhorta is one of the most loved bhorta recipes from Bangladesh! And when you have this with a plate of hot steamed rice, honestly, you need nothing else. 🤤
For this recipe, we need medium-sized prawns — *Harini Chingri* or *Bagha Chingri* work beautifully. Marinate the prawns with a little salt and lightly fry them in mustard oil. Don’t over-fry them, or they’ll turn rubbery.
In the same oil, fry dried red chillies and garlic, add a little kalonji tempering, and then fry plenty of chopped onions until golden. On a traditional *shil nora*, grind the dried chillies first, followed by the fried garlic and onions.
Lightly crush the fried prawns and combine everything together. Add salt, fresh green chillies, coriander leaves and a little of the fried prawns, and give it all a good mix.
And there you have it — our simple, rustic **Chingri Bhorta!** ❤️
Pair it with hot steamed rice and watch an entire plate disappear in no time! 🍚🦐
