Chanar Dalna | ছানর ডালনা

Chhanar Dalna is a traditional Bengali recipe and probably has it’s origin in Bengali Hindu widows’ kitchen. As, back then, the conservative society prohibited widows from doing, wearing and eating things that were considered ugro (something that is vibrant and rich and can trigger desire). Widows were not allowed to eat non vegetarian food and thus, to compensate the nutrition that comes from animal protein, these ladies created many recipes with milk and other nutritious vegetables. Later on, these recipes came out from their kitchen and accepted by every Bengali household for their nutrition values and utterly delicious tastes. Dalna is a very popular form of Bengali curry and is typically prepared without onion and garlic. Thus, it is also considered as satvik bhojon and is widely prepared in Bengali vegetarian kitchens. Dalna, if cooked properly, can give a tough competition to any popular rich non vegetarian item like chicken, mutton or fish.

Chanar dalna is a very popular dish and an inherent culture in the age old Bengali cuisine. During any festival / puja , chanar dalna is a must item. Chanar dalna is mainly served during religious occasions. It makes a very good combination with steaming rice or pulao.

The cuisine of Bengal consists of dishes from both East and West Bengal i.e. undivided Bengal era as well as the dishes which originated in the city of Kolkata during the British rule. There is an emphasis on vegetarian cuisine, specially during festivals and is most commonly prepared without onion and garlic. A Mughlai influence on the cuisine is due to the their rule over certain parts of Bengal and the last Mughal emperor Wajid Ali Shah has said to have contributed a lot to the Bengali cuisine. There is an array of lesser known dishes cooked every day at home. Panchmishali Torkari (five vegetable stir-fry), Chapor Ghonto (vegetable mishmash), Neem Begun (neem leaves stir fried with potato and brinjal), to name a few.

There is a bit of history involved with the origin of this unique blend of cuisines; The Indian form of “Hakka Cuisine” originates from the fact that the a lot of Chinese restaurants in India are owned by the people of the Hakka origin. Both the Indian and the Chinese cultures combined, accepted and fused happily in terms of food giving birth to an entirely new kind called the Indo-Chinese or the Indian Chinese; with the taste and flavors very different from both Indian and Chinese cuisine, it is a genre by itself. It is bold, varied, spicy – overall an experience by itself. The Indian Chinese flavors are also enjoyed by Indian and Chinese communities in Malaysia, and Singapore.
