Curd Pomfret

Just like all the Bong even I do have a fascination on fish.The best think about Bengali's are where ever they are, they are always connected with one thing and that is fish.Among all the fish Hilsa,Shrimp,Pomfret and Rohu comes in the first wish list.Today we will learn one Pomfret's recipe.   Pomfret is a very testy diamond shape soft fish and a very famous sea food.Today I will share a very easy to make recipe of this fish which will be ready for less than 15mins.

Ingredients:

• 2 Pomfret fish
• 4 table spoon plain yogurt
• 1/2 teaspoon ginger garlic paste
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
• 1/3 rd teaspoon coriander powder
• 1/3 rd teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon Fenugreek leaf powder(Kasoori Methi)
• salt as per taste
• 2 tablespoon white oil

Procedure:

• You can cook whole fish without cutting it or can cut it into half.If you are cooking whole fish make sure to give some slits on it.
• Take a bowl and mix all the spices(except salt) and plain curd together.Pour the fish into it,mix it well and  marinate it for about 30mins.
• Take a frying pan and put it on medium flame.Add oil and let it warm up a little.
• Pour all the fish along with the marination ,add some salt and cook it in high flame for about 5mins.
• Then cover the lid of the pan and cook it on low heat for 7-10min more.
• After 10mins your curd Pomfret or 'Doi Pomfret' is ready to serve.

I hope you will like this recipe.This is one of my 'jhat pat recipe' which I really like to do.You can do the same recipe with Rohu fish(Rui Mach) or with Hilsa Fish(Ilish Mach). Believe me it will taste equally good as Pompret.Only in case of Rohu fish the cooking time will be more (about 30min). So try it with which ever fish you like and enjoy this delicious recipe.
