We cannot imagine a traditional Bengali Wedding without the “Aiburobhat” Ceremony (a family gathering on the morning of the wedding) where this quintessential menu has to be on the plate. Usually, whole Topshe Maach is fried after coating with a batter of Besan (Gram Flour) and spices. Little Rice Flour is added to make the outer crust crunchy. Topshe is a fish with soft bone, it is fried whole inclusive of the bones while making the fry.
