So I had this grilled chicken at a local spot in Dhaka –Nila Market, to be exact. It’s one of those places that truly comes alive in the winter, known for its seasonal street food and cozy, comforting flavors. The grilled chicken? Smoky, spicy, and absolutely unforgettable.

I asked them for the recipe, and they were kind enough to share it with me – turns out, mustard oil and roasted gram flour are their secret ingredients in all their kebabs. I hope you enjoy this version as much as I did!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1/4 cup mixed nuts (such as almonds, walnuts, pecans), chopped
  • 1 ripe banana, sliced
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Directions

  1. Prepare the Fruit: Wash the berries thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. If using strawberries, remove the stems and slice them into halves or quarters.
  2. Assemble the Bowls: Divide the mixed berries evenly between two serving bowls. Arrange the sliced banana on top of the berries.
  3. Add Coconut and Nuts: Sprinkle the unsweetened coconut flakes and chopped mixed nuts over the fruit in each bowl, distributing them evenly.
  4. Optional Yogurt Drizzle: If desired, add a dollop of Greek yogurt on top of each fruit bowl. Drizzle with honey or maple syrup for a touch of sweetness.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Garnish the fruit bowls with fresh mint leaves for a burst of freshness and color. Serve immediately and enjoy!
