Chanar Dalna is a signature Bengali Vegan dish prepared with Cottage Cheese or Paneer or CHANA…For this dish I bluntly followed my mother’s recipe… simple light but tasty gravy with Chana and potato… We used have it on every 2nd Saturday as part of our vegan dinner and till date Maa prepares Chanar Dalna as part of the Bhog of Jagadhatri Puja.. My mother uses a paste of Ginger and Cumin while preparing Chanar Dalna and the same recipe is followed by the Caterer while preparing the food for the entire family on Jagadhatri Puja…However, in Kolkata, Chana is available in the shops but here in Gurgaon we always need to prepare it at home….and I personally Don’t like to replace Chana with Store bought Paneer while making this dish..
