Yellow Fish Curry

April 10, 2015 By Nisha

 Fish is the dominant kind of protein in Bengali cuisine and is cultivated in ponds and fished with nets in the freshwater rivers of the Ganges Delta. Almost every part of the fish ( of course except scales, fins, and innards) is eaten. The head is particularly preferred in Bengal. Other spare bits of the fish are usually used to flavor curries and dals.

Most popular fish varieties are carps like Rui (Rohu), Koi (climbing perch), the wriggling catfish family—tangra, magur, shingi—pabda (the pink-bellied Indian butter fish), katla, ilish (or Hilsa), as well as shuţki (small dried sea fish).

This is a recipe for rui (Rohu) in Yellow Curry. This is a spicy dish, served as part of Main course in West Bengal and Bangladesh.
