Her dishes, marked by the extensive use of mustard oil and seeds, saltwater and freshwater fishes, and varied leafy green vegetables, remain true to the authentic tastes of her native Kolkata, Dhaka and Mymensingh. Each dish is crafted with her signature spice mixes - Paanch Phoron, Shorshe, Posto, Kalo Jeera and Bhaja Moshla - which have been passed down through generations in her family.
