There are two popular dishes we make with jumbo prawns or shrimps - this one with coconut and the other which is steamed with mustard paste (shorse bata) and green chilies.<br /><br />Here is the recipe: <br />http://preeoccupied.blogspot.com/2010/08/culinary-comeback-with-shorse-diye.html<br /><br />Sure I will try and do the Doi Mach soon. Its most often made with Rui/Rohu Fish.PreeOccupiedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11976093401508848605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266584174625042713.post-47364185880762892742010-10-12T21:53:53.738-04:002010-10-12T21:53:53.738-04:00What an incredible blog!!

I am assuming that if I used shrimp, the recipe remains the same?<br /><br />Also, in researching recipes for this dish, many mention the use of a mixture of sarson bata and green chilis as well. Is this a a variation of the same recipe that is seen commonly in Bengal?<br /><br />Also, could you be so kind as to do a post on doi maach? That would be incredible!<br /><br />Thanks so much in advance<br /><br />JH (NYC)Just Hooking Uphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05154051283430737730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266584174625042713.post-7009232430351395272010-04-18T16:20:39.242-04:002010-04-18T16:20:39.242-04:00No idea what we'll do to the coconuts.
