In this episode, Foodka takes you on a mouth-watering journey through Kolkata's beloved street foods—luchi, kachori, dalpuri, and many more. We explore the origins of these iconic dishes, highlighting how maida (refined flour) became a staple in Bengali cuisine, replacing atta (whole wheat flour) in delicacies like luchi and kachori. While both are made from the same dough, the difference lies in the stuffing—kachori comes filled with flavorful ingredients like lentils, peas, or potatoes.

Join Foodka as we visit some of Kolkata's most famous eateries. From a humble shop near Roy Street that serves luchi with a simple potato curry, to Mrittunjoy Mistanna Bhandar, known for its signature koraisutir kachori (green pea kachori) with cholar dal and their famous rasmundi payesh, a unique dessert made with small rasgullas. We also stop by the century-old Sri Hari Mishtanna Bhandar in Bhawanipur, where the must-try combo is kachori served with halwa.

This episode celebrates the cultural and culinary significance of luchi and kachori—from their classic pairings with dishes like aloo charchari, to their role in bringing small moments of joy to everyday Bengali life.

Don't miss the next episode, where we switch gears from Kolkata's street food to explore the flavors of Lucknow with a special biryani treat!
