Muri Ghonto

Muri Ghonto is one of the signature dishes from the Bengali Cuisine. We cook it with Rice and Fish head (mostly Rohu Fish/ Rui Mach or Katla fish). Muri stands for Head. We mostly savor it with plain rice. Ghonto is a mushy side dish. It is a basic fish head fried and cooked with rice along with a melange of spices which gives it scrumptious flavors.
