‘Chingri Malai’, a Bengali prawn curry that draws influences from Malaysia (hence also known as ‘Malay Curry’), combines typical Bengali ingredients such as mustard, chilli and ginger to create a creamy and juicy flavour bomb. In this recipe, Boombay’s 100% natural cashew + mustard dip and spread is added to the curry to enhance its rich and creamy flavours.
