Non Veg
Bhapa (Baked) Rohu Fish is a Bengali cuisine. Bengalis are very passionate about their fish, and I'm no exception. So here is a special recipe of Bengal, known as Bhapa (baked) Rohu fish. This delicacy is not limited to Rohu fish; you can try any other fish if you like.


The following quantity serves 6 people.
Ingredients:

1. Rohu fish – 6 steaks

2. Mustard paste– 4 tbsp

3. Turmeric powder – 1 tsp

4. Salt – 1 tsp

5. Sugar – 1 tsp

6. Green chillies – 2 to 3 (split lengthwise)

7. Mustard oil – 2 tbsp

8. Water – ¼ cup

 

Preparation:

1. Wash and pat dry the Rohu steaks. Lightly sprinkle some salt on both sides and set aside.

2. Take an oven-proof baking dish. Add mustard paste, turmeric powder, salt, sugar and water to the baking dish and mix well to make a smooth mixture.

3. Now add the fish to the mustard mix and drizzle the mustard oil on top.

4. Rub each fish steak into the mustard paste to coat all sides thoroughly with the mustard mix.

5. Scatter the split green chillies all over the baking dish. Cover the dish tightly with an aluminium foil.

6. Preheat your oven to 180 C / 350 F and place the wire rack at the lower level.

7. Bake the fish in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then take them out, uncover and turn over the fish steaks.

8. Cover the baking dish again with foil and let it sit inside the hot oven for another 10 minutes. You won’t need to bake them again; the left-over heat in the oven will be enough for final 10 minutes.

9. Serve hot bhapa (baked) Rohu fish with white Basmati rice. Enjoy!
