Shukto is an emotion for a Bengali. Its a medley of bitter and sweet. The authentic Shukto recipe has no use of chilies. You can add various kinds of vegetable of your choice. Shukto is a must lunch item in Bengali weddings / functions. Now what is wedding style Shukto?? Well, its more creamy, more rich in flavor. If you can follow each steps of this recipe then you will get why I named it 'biyebarir shukto'.
