A dialogue about how
to fix an appointment with a doctor.
Patient
: Good morning sir, how are you?
Doctor
: Good morning, I am
fine. Now tell me what’s your problem?
Patient
: I have been suffering
from fever for two days. I have had some
medicine but they do not work well.
Doctor
: Did you have the
medicine according to any doctor’s advice?
Patient
: No, Doctor.
Doctor
: It’s very bad. Without
consulting with any doctor, none should
have
medicine.
Patient
: Do I have anything serious, doctor?
Doctor
: No. Only a slight
cold.
Patient
: Will it last long?
Doctor
: No, not so serious.
Now I am prescribing you some medicines.
Take them proper time according to the
indication. I hope you’ll be ok in a day or two.
Patient
: Thank you doctor.
Doctor
: You are most welcome.

Chirer Pulao
Bengali Chirer Pulao Recipe is a twist to the poha variations that you find in other states of Bangladesh. In Bangladesh, Poha is a staple breakfast dish and has a mild sweetness taste to it. The addition of vegetables to the Bengali Chirer Pulao makes this dish packed with nutrients and a healthy menu choice for the school lunch box as well.
Serve the Bengali Chirer Pulao for the breakfast along with a hot cup of masala chai or enjoy it as an evening tea time snack.
Other recipes you can try are:
Ingredients
- 2 cups Flattened rice (Poha)
- 1 Onion , thinly sliced
- 1 Carrot , finely chopped
- 6-7 Green beans (French Beans) , finely chopped
- 1/2 cup Cauliflower (gobi) , florets
- 1/3 cup Green peas (Matar)
- 3 tablespoons Roasted Peanuts
- 1 tablespoon Raisins
- 1/4 teaspoon Kalonji (Onion Nigella Seeds)
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder (Haldi)
- 2 teaspoons Sugar
- Salt and Pepper , to taste
- juice from one lemon
- Coriander leaves (Dhania) , small bunch, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoon Vegetable Oil
Directions for Bengali Chirer Pulao Recipe (Bengali Style Poha With Vegetables)
- To begin making Bengali Chirer Pulao Recipe, we will first steam the green peas, carrots, cauliflower and beans in a steamer until it is cooked. Once cooked, remove from the steamer and keep the vegetables aside.
- Place the poha (Chirer) in a colander and rinse it well under running water. Stir the poha gently by using your fingers while rinsing, otherwise they will become mushy at the time of cooking. Once washed set aside the poha.
- The next step is to bring the Chirer Pulao together. Heat oil in a heavy bottomed pan or a wok. Add the nigella seeds and allow it to crackle.
- Add sliced onions and saute over medium heat till light brown in color. Once the onions are tender, add the turmeric powder, steamed vegetables, peanuts, raisins, salt and sugar. Stir to combine and finally add rinsed poha (Chirer).
- Give the poha (Chirer) a gentle stir until all the ingredients come together. Turn the heat to low and cover the pan. Allow the poha (Chirer) to cook in the steam along with the vegetables. This will take about 3 to 4 minutes.
- After 3 to 4 minutes, you will notice the poha (Chirer) has puffed up slightly. At this stage turn off the heat. Stir in the juice from one lemon and the coriander leaves. Check the salt and seasonings and adjust to suit your taste.
- Serve the Bengali Chirer Pulao for the breakfast along with a hot cup of masala chai or enjoy it as an evening tea time snack.
