So, this was a totally different gastronomic experience...even my fussy 3-year old gobbled it all up!<br />So, I just couldn&#39;t go away without telling u that you rock!<br /><br />BTW, I have also tried your spicy egg bake, and have loved it!Leyanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-45301000947527819242010-11-23T07:42:13.796-05:002010-11-23T07:42:13.796-05:00I am going to try the typical Oriya dish.

It came out well. The only annoying part was the bones in the hilsa.... it was a pain removing the bones and it has too many bones... the fish was tasty though.... next time I will try it with salmon or tilapia fillet. Thanks for sharing this recipe!myspicykitchenhttp://myspicykitchen.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-22039637584724419782010-03-06T07:55:42.722-05:002010-03-06T07:55:42.722-05:00Hi Sandeepa, could you suggest a substitute for hilsa in Doi Ilish? My local grocer doesn&#39;t carry hilsa. There is a speciality store near by which carries large variety of seafood. I will check there but, incase I can&#39;t hilsa, which fish would u suggest?myspicykitchenhttp://myspicykitchen.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-4473916470618076462010-01-23T13:42:59.908-05:002010-01-23T13:42:59.908-05:00accepted remedies looking for impo powerhouse herb restores manful vitality, boosting libido, intestinal fortitude, and fertility.

First of all I don't know why you would add mango puree instead of curd, the taste will be hugely different. I have never had such a combo in fact.<BR/><BR/>2. I am not sure if you are used to Indian food. Maybe the spiciness of the mustard paste did not suit you ? The curd was supposed to mellow it down.<BR/><BR/>3.I have no idea what you can do with the curry as I don't even know how it tastes with mango pureeSandeepahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15407918137263251235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-86150471482148640362008-01-29T13:36:00.000-05:002008-01-29T13:36:00.000-05:00Hi,<BR/><BR/>I tried th Macha besara, but dint add the curd.

Bengali Cuisine doesn't use a lot of garlic and Posto for us is strictly "niramish" so no garlic. also the garlic overpowers the flavor of Posto which is itself very nice I think<BR/><BR/>Shnatanu<BR/>You are right that's what attracted me to it. Its pretty good if you like the garlic flavor. But definitely will not do with Ilish. I don't want garlic with my Ilish<BR/><BR/>Eve's Lungs<BR/>Yes as I told Shantanu, try the Orissa recipe with Rohu, Ilish will not be a good idea for that garlicy taste<BR/><BR/>Indosungod<BR/>Of the fresh fish that we get from the Asian Market, Tilapia is the one that is most popular closely followed by striped bass and strout<BR/><BR/>Shn<BR/>Since you are a Mallu and Coconut is in your blood :) I would say you try the Prawn Malaikari.<BR/>Also again since you are a Mallu I can completely trust you with the prawn and also with the prawn head which makes the dish more delicious<BR/><BR/>Coffee<BR/>You made me do it. bad girl :)<BR/><BR/>Alpha<BR/>I have been to Darjeeling several times but long long back :)<BR/><BR/>Mahua<BR/>Ami to East Coast e thaki, tumi SJ ke jiggesh korte paro about the Travel Agent<BR/><BR/>Trupti<BR/>Good to see you after so long :) Yeah summer is getting over, how are your boys ?<BR/>There is a dish with bhindi and mustard, never tried with drumstick<BR/><BR/>Cynthia<BR/>You do love your pickle don't you ? :) The fish is yummySandeepahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15407918137263251235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-23657922561323857982007-08-19T01:06:00.000-04:002007-08-19T01:06:00.000-04:00Anh<BR/>Sure...why not ?
