Chingri Malai Curry is a festive Bengali delicacy, often cooked during Durga Puja and other celebrations. Juicy prawns are marinated and lightly sautéed, then simmered in a creamy coconut milk gravy with cashew paste, mustard, onions, and spices. The result is a rich, mildly spiced curry that pairs beautifully with plain steamed rice.
