Piyajkoli chingri machh is a Bengali shrimp dish cooked with crisp onion flower stalks, mustard oil, nigella, turmeric, and green chile. The greens stay vivid while the light sauce coats rice cleanly.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dish)
Clean the shrimp and rub with salt and turmeric while trimming the onion stalks into short lengths.
Sear the shrimp briefly in mustard oil and remove before they overcook.
Bloom nigella seeds and green chiles, then saute the onion stalks until bright and just tender.
Return the shrimp with ginger and a splash of water to make a light golden sauce.
Finish with cilantro and serve immediately over steamed rice.
