The curious case of Niramish Mangsho: Mutton curry without meat in Kali Puja
During Kali Puja, a night of contrasts in Bengal, devotees create 'Niramish Mangsho,' a vegetarian 'mutton' curry. This dish, often made with jackfruit or banana stem, mimics the taste and texture of traditional goat curry while adhering to vegetarian ritual requirements. It represents a cultural balance between faith, appetite, and the enduring Bengali love for flavorful food.
