Bengali fish curry

ইলিশ - গাঁঠিকচুর - তেলঝোল (Illish Gathi Kochu)

Illish Gathi Kochu is a traditional Bengali delicacy that combines the rich, oily flavor of hilsa fish with the earthy taste of tender taro stems. Cooked in a lightly spiced mustard-based gravy, this dish is a celebration of seasonal ingredients and authentic Bengali flavors. The softness of kochu blends beautifully with the hilsa, creating a hearty, aromatic meal that pairs best with steamed rice. A true taste of Bengal’s culinary heritage!
