Pairing Bhuna Khichuri correctly — a note on aam panna green mango drink

Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Bhuna Khichuri. I ordered it with aam panna green mango drink and the fresh and fishy elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. panch phoron five-spice in particular became more prominent in a good way.

hilsa fish is a cultural icon in Bangladesh — its seasonal availability is a national event. The a Dhaka riverside fish restaurant is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Bhuna Khichuri with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
