Katla Macher Kalia / Fish Kalia / Bengali Style Fish Kalia is an authentic Bengali dish. It is not very difficult to get a big Katla (Fish) here, however it is really difficult to finish the big fish within a week in a nuclear family
It is a traditional Bengalifish gravy recipe generally made in summer season. Today I am going to make a nutritious fish gravy made with potato and ridge gourd
Generally it is made with some popular Bengalifishes like Rohu or Rui,Bhetki or Barramundi,Katla but it can made with some other fishes which have less bone or are boneless
Fishhead(Rohu/katla/Hilsa). As all know that bengalis do not throw any part of a fish, so fish head goes into many veges like bottle gourd or cabbage and even in rice
Rohu/katlaFish In Mustard and Poppy Seeds Paste Gravy. Cooking fish as a most important side dish while preparing lunch or dinner for the family is almost an each day job of a Bengali home maker
In this recipe I have used Katlafish. It is a traditional Bengali recipe, very simple and delicious. My todays recipe is “Healthy Fish Gravy In Pressure Cooker”
Bengalis are fond of different type of chops - aloor choop (potato fritters), onion fritters, vegetable chop, dimer chop or egg devil, fish chop or macher chop etc
