Guess which dish Shreya Ghosal prefers after returning home from a long tour. Surprisingly, the dish is not a fancy one, but rather very simple yet delicious home-cooked comfort food.

In fact, it is a very common meal that comes with a lovely taste and mesmerizing aroma.    

Popular playback singer Shreya Ghosal who will perform in Swami Vivekananda maidan in Agartala on December 14 as part of the Tripura tourism Promo Fest-2024, shared a little secret about her favourite home-made palatable dish that she craves the moment she returns home from the dazzling world of entertainment.

Not just about her comfort food, the versatile singer also shared her vintage look for the new music video Ujaan that earned accolades from her fans.  

In a candid and heartwarming Instagram video, Shreya revealed her ultimate go-to comfort food after returning from gruelling tours. It is none other than the humble dish—Masoor dal, Bhaat, and Aloo Seddho Makha —that melts her heart. It’s a dish like a hug on a plate!  

“I love all Bengali food. But for me, the comfort food, after returning home after many days of a tour, is the simple Masoor Dal with panch phoran, rice and aloo seddho with ghee and a little bit of chili, etc. That for me is the most favourite home comfort Bengali food”, she said in the video.

It may be noted, Masoor dal is a nutritional powerhouse, rich in protein, fiber, and essential vitamins which ensure several health benefits.
