Rohu Fish Fry | Bengali Style

In West Bengal,Tripura, Orissa, Assam and Bangladesh, fried fish or māchh bhājā is a common delicacy eaten as a snack or fritter to go with a meal. Riverine fish like bhetki, topshey, aarh and pābdā (Ompok pābdā), and anadromous fish such as hilsa are commonly fried in Bengali cuisine, Oriya cuisine and Assamese cuisine. The oil used to fry the fish may often be used as a dip. Fried fish roe (e.g. of hilsa) are also often eaten this way. The fish is often deep fried such that fish bones become crispy and edible, as is the case with small fish like Maurala (Opio cephalus).

Dim'er Devil Dim'er Devil
Dim er Devil is a pucca Calcutta delight. The city's chop-cutlet culture is legendary, and Dim er Devil or Egg Devil enjoys a glory spot among the mind boggling assortment of crumbed and fried goodies - fish fry, kabiraji cutlets, fish rolls and batter fried fish - the city offers.Calcutta owes its chop-cutlet legacy to the Raj Era. Back in the days of the Raj, local khansamas learnt the nuances of European cooking in the kitchens of the sahibs. Soon they were crumbing and frying thin escallops of meat, cooking with cheese and baking pies. And with that started the feted chop-cutlet tradition.Dim er Devil is something of a misnomer. It is not deviled eggs but a Bengali version of scotch eggs, a classic English dish, with in turn was inspired by the Mughlai Nargisi Kofta. But Bengali cuisine, especially Raj era cuisine, has quite a few such misnomers. Chop to a Bengali, for instance, is not a cut of meat, but crumbed and fried croquettes. And we make chops out of everything - meat, prawns, fish, potatoes, tomato, banana blossom et al. Dim'er devil is the richer cousin of chops. This eggs encased in a sweet and spicy minced goat meat wrap and are mini bombs packed with flavours. Lets Talk Food -
