Whenever I go any Biye Bari or Marriage Reception I always love to have that special Macher Kalia or Fish Curry. Because the taste is so good, so many times I tried to make fish curry like that but was never able to cook. But finally I got one recipe from one of my friend Trina Majumdar . Thanks Trina for the lovely recipe. She is a great cook. The taste of the fish curry is quite similar to Biyabari special Macher Kalia.
