Fish Kachuri

#mychildhoodrecipe Bongs are always related to ‘ mach bhaat ghum’ and Bengalis always bask in the glory of fish items. In my childhood my grandma had her special fish kachuri recipe and it has special memories with me. The fish kachuri made with Bhetki fish was amongst one of the items served for the first time to my husband - her ‘natjamai’ . I recreated her recipe with katla fish and today I wish she was here to taste the fish kachuri made by her granddaughter.
