Steamed Catfish Curry / Pabda Maacher Bhapa Jhol
A very simple and quick recipe for all fish lovers like me. I remember a friend of mine from college inviting me to her place over lunch , where I clearly remember her mother serving some of the authentic bangladeshi dishes and this recipe is one of them . After repeatedly insisting her mother to reveal the recipe she finally agreed to it ( as good cooks from yesteryears never used to reveal their recipes ). Last evening somehow I just thought of recreating the dish and the end result was pretty convincing. preparation time : 10 mins cooking time : 20 mins total time: 30 mins servings : 3 ingredients : onion : 4 finely chopped ginger : 2 inch , finely grates garlic : about 10 pods , finely grated green chilli : 5 to 6 slit turmeric powder : 1 tablespoon red chilli powder : 1 teaspoon coriander powder : 1 teaspoon cumin powder : 1 teaspoon catfish / pabda maach : 3 note : you may ignore adding coriander powder as few people do not prefer using it in fish recipe...
