Hi friends, this is a typical Bengali recipe which is our all time favourite. In winter if we can arrange the Ilish mach then the taste will be yummier because of variety of seasonal vegetables. Otherwise with rui, katla fish also u can try. This recipe by my mother’s hand is just unforgettable. Here the dish is for serving 4. So friends try and enjoy it with hot rice.
