Loitta Shutki Jhal
Loitta shutki jhal is a sharp Bengali dried Bombay duck preparation, cooked with onion, garlic, chiles, and mustard oil until intensely savory. The texture is dry and clingy rather than soupy, perfect with plain rice.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dish)
Rinse the dried fish quickly, then soak briefly if it is very salty and drain well.
Fry onion, garlic, and chiles in mustard oil until aromatic.
Add tomato, turmeric, and cumin or coriander, cooking to a thick masala.
Stir in the shutki and cook until the pieces soften and the masala clings.
Finish with cilantro and lime, keeping the dish bold and mostly dry.
