Fish cooked in Kashundi (A Mustard based sauce unique to Bengal)
Ingredients
Bhetki / Basa fillets - 500-750gm
Ginger-Garlic paste (I use homemade) - 1.5 tbspn
Chili flakes / chili powder - depends on heat tolerance
Salt
Crushed Black pepper
Procedure :
1. Bhetki/Basa fillets marinated in ginger, garlic paste, salt, pepper, chilli flakes/chilli powder and generous helping of Kashundi/Kasundi for 1/2 - 1 hr.
2. Drizzle 2-3 tbsp of Mustard Oil to the marinated fish. (This may be eliminated or just a minimum quantity of oil may be used). Mix well and place them evenly in a flat bottomed microwaveable glass container
Slit some green chilies and place them on the 'bed' of fish.
Microwave on Power 80 for 8-10minutes.
Keep it within the oven for 2-3 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped Coriander leaves.
Tastes delicious with steamed rice.
Cooking couldnt be faster or easier!!
