Koi Machher Jhol
Koi machher jhol is a light Bengali curry for climbing perch, simmered with potato, cumin, ginger, turmeric, and green chile. The broth stays thin and golden so the delicate fish remains the focus.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dish)
Rub the fish with salt and turmeric, then sear briefly in mustard oil and remove.
Fry potato wedges until lightly golden at the edges.
Bloom cumin, ginger, and green chiles in the oil, then add water to make a thin broth.
Simmer potatoes until nearly tender, return the fish, and cook gently until done.
Finish with cilantro and serve the jhol hot with rice.
