Dear Ushnish, Thanks for dropping by. Bata jeera always taste good than the powdery one we use, but alas its a fast world, and the sheel-nora is kept solely.

I am pretty fond of Parshe fish and invariably all of its. Traditionally in Bengali households, the posto bata ('bata' meaning paste) or any paste as such, was made by hand using the 'shil-nora' as we call it. This dry red chilli imparts a nice flavor to the oil. Now add in the Kalo Jeera or Kalonji (Nigella seeds) and let them splutter. This is a very typical fish curry, laden with prominent Bengali flavors.
