Chuno Macher Jhuri Recipe / Small fish fry

Today I am going to share a very simple snack recipe; that is Chuno Macher Jhuri Recipe / Small fish fry. Chuno macher Jhuri is very simple and delicious, which can go well with rice and dal. Small fish are also a very nutritious and great source of protein, vitamin D, and calcium. They are also rich in minerals and nutrients like iron, magnesium, and zinc and very less or negligible amounts of fat.

Equipment required

1. Griddle/Concave tawa
2. Frypan
3. Mixing bowl
4. Spatula

Ingredients

1. Small fish-250 gm
2. Onion (chopped)-1
3. Potato (fine cut)-1

5. Grated ginger-1/2 tbsp
6. Green chili (chopped)-2

11. Coriander leaves (chopped)-2 tbsp

The procedure of Chuno Macher Jhuri Recipe / Small fish fry

Clean and wash well the fish as small fish is having more dirt

Now add turmeric powder and salt

And rub the fish well

Heat oil in a griddle/tawa, and let it come to a smoky point (make it seasoned, otherwise it will be very difficult to fry the small fish. All will become mash and stick to the pan)

Slowly place the small fish in the tawa and make the flame medium

Allow the fish to fry for 2 minutes on its own

After 2-3 minutes, start tossing them frequently, no need to fry them more or to make them crispy. Once fried, they take them out from the flame and keep them aside.

Now Heat oil in a frying pan, and then add curry leaves

Add chopped onions and green chili and sauté them for 2 minutes

Once they become soft then add the fine-cut potato and fry them for 2-3 minutes

Then add turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt and stir them till the raw smell of the spices goes off

Add the fried fish and mix them in well and turn the flame high and toss them for 2 minutes, then turn off the flame

Now transfer them to a serving plate, spread some coriander leaves, and serve hot
