There is a really crisis in good taste of Fishes and all...So more or less we were having just the vegetables only...But somehow we missed the taste Of Bengal Fishes...and so Now very often we go for the fishes item or preparation...and really it does make sense to me now that at this moment We are the Fan of Fish preaparation.I tried many kind of Fish preparation but this delicious Dahi Katla recipe I just come to know one of my nearest Bhabi (in Bengali Boudi), named Suchita Ray...And I must accept it that she is a great cook and a inspiration to me also. So this preparation I just made for her and dedicating to her also...A spicy Non-Veg preparation is my current sharing recipe for you...
