Bhapa Sorshe Ilish(Steamed Hilsa Fish in Mustard gravy)

#fish Hilsa is considered as one of the most tastiest fish due to its distinctly soft oily texture, mouthwatering flavour and superb mouthfeel. It forms a staple diet in Bangladesh and Myanmar. The fish is locally called “Macher Raja”; meaning the king of fish. Best hilsa is supposedly from the river Padma flowing in Bangladesh. Bhapa Ilish is easy and is relished across West Bengal
