Odisha special recipe

Odisha has a vast coast line along the Bay of Bengal and also has many rivers flowing within the region. Owing to this proximity, its sea cuisine is an inevitable part of Oriya diet and majority of its population prefers non vegetarian food. Out of the many varieties in the sea food platter, Chungdi Malai tarkari is a lip smacking non vegetarian dish. It is basically a creamy prawn curry that gets its rich goodness with coconut milk that gives it a distinct flavour. Its taste is further enhanced by treating the curry with simple and mild spices that make the prawn curry a very popular local dish. Teamed up with fresh steamed Basmati rice, Chungdi Malai is a delicious finger licking Odisha speciality.
Location: Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, India
