Fish & Salad

Chitol Maach er Bori

This brings back memories. I remember my dad used to bring this 3 foot long fish whenever possible and cleaned it up for my mother to cook. Our family was huge ,so we got equal number of “borees” each. Few in number, but , a taste that will linger in your mouth long after. This…

Pomfret Fry

Pomfret is a type of fish and you know how healthy fishes can be. There is a common belief that eating fish strengthen memory. I don’t know how true that is but I love eating fish. You may have guessed that with all my fish recipes 😀 The most easy thing you can do with…

Potoler Dorma (Stuffed Parwal)

This recipe is generally prepared when we invite some of our close friends. The stuffing can be both vegetarian or non-vegetarian.

Coming to papaya, with the recent developments in agriculture and plantations, papaya is found all year round and is…

Shutki and Begoon(Dry Fish and Brinjal)

This dish always reminds me of the time when I fooled my Father In Law into eating dry fish. He had a terrible cold and everything tasted bland to him. I decided to make him eat something spicy and what is better than shutki? But the problem was- He hated shutki. I added a lot…

Coriander Fish Curry(Dhone-Tengra Maacher Jhal)

Tengra mach (Day’s Mystus) is a very delicious fish that is commonly prepared by Bengalis. There are various ways one can prepare a fish-you can bake it, fry it, make a sauce for it etc. There are so many ways! I decided to go a little green here. Rather than using tomato puree I went…
