This recipe is close to my heart as it reminds me of my grandmother and her house! An old fashioned house in Kolkata with ample sunshine, big windows, high ceiling and red cement floors which would keep it cool even in the hottest summers. The biggest room being the kitchen my only memories of her are there. This illustration is illustrated with elements of that era- the red cement floor, the hand fans, the Bengali text and the general calmness of nostalgia which goes with this mild yet pleasantly spicy prawn recipe!
