Sitabhog

Sitabhog is a flavourful dessert that looks like white rice or vermicelli mixed with small pieces of Gulab jamun.

Made from cottage cheese (also known as chhana in Bengali), rice flour and sugar, Sitabhog often gives the appearance of pulao, which is albeit sweet in taste.

Seventy two years after this invention the name of Sitabhog and Mihidana earned its reputation all over India after the arrival of Lord Curzon in Bardhaman and his appraisal for these two sweets.
