Catfish Pakoras

Recipe by: Madhumita

Be the first to review it!

A Bengali lives by fish and rice. Living in North America, I had to adapt to the fact that I could not get the fish that I grew up with in India. So I learnt to eat catfish, trout, salmon and striped bass etc. Catfish is one of my favourites, as the fatty fish lends itself to a lot of moisture and it doesn't smell fishy at all - if its fresh! This is a recipe I came up with on a whim.

Serve with a spicy chilli or minty yoghurt sauce. Try other vegetables too, such as sweet potatoes, broccoli and asparagus. You can also use paneer.

These stuffed savoury pastries are a traditional Indian favourite. Lamb and spices are cooked together to create a mouthwatering filling for the easy to make pastry. The recipe may seem complex, but it's actually fairly simple. Enjoy!
