I’m thankful to my Bangladeshi aunt who taught me this recipe long back, since then I’m devouring this whenever I got fresh Mourola. Mustard oil is the key ingredient here, it cannot be replaced with any other oil in this recipe. This is a simple dish where the black pepper plays equally well with green chilies, and gives certain hot taste to the entire thing, what is much needed. Whenever you are cooking with raw fish, the ingredients must be strong to fade away that raw fishy smell, so no after cooking smell here, what I can assure you about. Try this you wouldn’t be disappointed.
