Pomfret is a popular fish through the World.It is a meaty fish with soft bones.It can be preparedi in many different ways including smoked,grilled, tandoori, pan fried and deep fried.
It is my favourite fish.My mom says that I would call it 'Tomkel' instead of pomfret when I was kid. I was not able to pronunce the name pomfret. Now I do not get the reason why I gave this name. Whenever I would come to my maternal grandfather's house, go to fish market holding my grandpa's hand and find pomfret around the market. I miss my grandparents a lot.
Today I am going to share with you a simple delicate pan fried pomfret recipe.
