Chingri Bati Chorchori

I have just returned from a trip to India and once again one of the best dishes I have tasted on this trip comes from my friend Sagarika's home . Her mom is an expert cook too and her rendition of "bati chorchori " is one of the most unique one I have eaten. Bati chorchori basically translates to cooking a mix of ingredients in one bowl with as little fuss as possible.

Ingredients

• 1 pound of medium size prawns
• 1 medium sized onion
• 1 large potato
• mustard paste ( grind black mustard seeds with a pinch of salt and two green chillies into a paste)
  
• 2 tsp mustard oil
• 2-3 green chillies
• 2 tsp cilantro chopped
• 1/2 tsp turmeric
• 1/2 tsp chilli powder
• salt to taste
  

Cut onions and potatoes, in long strips, mix with cleaned prawns, mustard paste, mustard oil, green chillies, chilly powder, turmeric and salt. Chop some coriander leaves as well and mix it.Mix everything in a kadai/wok , put the gas to high for sometime, then cover and let it simmer till everything is cooked. Should take about 7-10 mins. Garnish with cilantro .
