Shorshe Pomfret (Fish in Mustard Gravy)
#comfortfoodrecipes -Fish curry with rice is my best comfort food. This is my version of a traditional Bengali style fish curry. It is best relished with hot steamed rice. The addition of raw mustard oil to the end product enhances the flavour and gives it an authentic touch to this dish. This is a very easy, simple and a delicious recipe.
