FISH HEAD BOWL CURRY/MACHER MUROR BATI CHOCHORI

 

It is very simple yet delicious cooking. A very old recipe, basically this type of cooking was common in villages.
Today I am sharing the easiest recipe.

Ingredients:

1 large head of good Rohu fish
Onion-1 large (finely chopped)
Raw Chillies - 2 (cut into small pieces) Garlic - 3 cloves (finely chopped)
Ginger- 1 inch (finely chopped)
Turmeric - 1 tsp
Kashmiri red chilli powder – 1 tsp
Mustard oil - 2 tbsp
Tomato-1, finely chopped, leave out if not desired.
Salt to taste.

Method: 

Cut the whole head of Rohu fish into 2 pieces. Mix well all the above mentioned ingredients in a large steel bowl and add water (1 cup). Add mustard oil on top. Place a steel bowl on gas, cover and boil for 10 minutes. When it is very smooth (not too much water is remain) take it off and serve with hot rice. You can also use kadai for making this recipe... in that case you use a lid on karai for perfect boiling. But you will enjoy real taste for this recipe when you use a steel or alluminium bowl to make this " bati chorchori".
Have a nice lunch with Bengali " Macher mathar bati chorchori".
