Festival Tajikistani Roasted Fish Rice

Assemble the ingredients: fish, chili, potato, coriander, flour, carrot, bell pepper.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the fish and cook until roasted.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Tajikistani flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Tajikistani accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
