Chitol Machher Muithya-Bengali Chitol Fish Dumplings

[@SreemoyTalukdar]

আহা! রান্না টা দেখে মন ভরে গেলো.. আমরা কাঠ বাঙাল, তাই ঠাকুমার হাতে মুইঠ্যা (মুঠো) ঠিক এভাবেই রান্না হতো, মনে আছে। ধন্যবাদ তোমাদের, for opening one precious window of my memory

[@niveditasen6496]

My mother used to cook this occasionally in exactly the same way, although I don't think she put the dhania and jeera powder in the muthiya itself, probably in the curry. the remaining bones has quite some flesh which cannot be scaped off without getting the bones, and she used to make a delicious "kanta chorchori" with it using just onions, brinjal and mustard paste. I still dont know which I used to prefer - the Muthiya or the Chorchori !!! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe

[@srimalaypayne260]

We use mustard oil for whole cooking which makes the whole flavour awesome. Further, the muithyas are not mixed with potato and maida and are shaped somewhat round (in order to justify the name which literally means shaped with palm and fingers of hand) and gently boiled after mixing with spices. The muithyas are shallow fried in order to avoid making them chewy by deep frying. Of course, this classic dish has got different style of cooking in all Bengali household. Nice video during puja for people to try this dish.

[@thelostsoul4523]

I have had both kinds - mixed with potatoes and not mixed. I found without potatoes, the muthias are more chewy and lack softness. Mixing with potatoes makes it softer and deep frying gives it a crispy outside and soft inside.

[@shreyabasu9586]

We too do not use maida or boiled potatoes to make the muithyas.

[@shamitapoddar5696]

This used to be such a difficult recipe during my late Mashis time in the ‘70’s . Need to try it on my next trip to Mumbai . You at Bong Eats have displayed your culinary skills yet again … Bravo Good wishes from London ..

[@pallabikamandal]

We make a fish stock from the bone and skin and use it for the gravy. It makes the gravy really thick and gelatinous . Maida in muitha and deep frying makes them chewy. Nice video ..

[@gourirrannaghar]

👍👍

[@SoumyaSarkar]

I was thinking the same about the remainder of the fish. Boiling the carcass it and straining the stock will be more productive use of this amazing fish.

Nice recipe. This one is different from my version that I have learned from my mother. We don't use any potato in the kofta. We make round kofta and don't fry it in deep oil. This version looks very different. Hope to try it sometimes. Thanks for uploading the recipe.

[@anuradhabanik6658]

Deep frying the muitthas make them chewy,,, shallow fry on oil prevent this & keep soft muitthas

[@ruchira2606]

Wonderful to see such a recipe which is getting lost in this fast paced life. My parents make kata chorchori with the remains of the chitol skin and that is devoured with more relish than the muithya or chitol macher kola torkari.

[@Chitrakala.amrita]

Agreed the kata chorchori is to die for

[@irdalin_006]

My mom taught me to make this dish and this video brings back so many memories. Especially scraping the fish off the bones part kinda made me tear up a little. Because I always did that part for my mom back home and she used to be so proud of how meticulously I did that. Now a thousand miles away from home, I miss this dish like hell.

[@MadhumitaChoudhury-ym9cq]

My maa used to make this recipe, I have always been a fan of the delicacies prepared by her. Today,she is no more with us. I never learnt this recipe from her while she was alive, but today when she's no more I'm going to prepare it❤

I have two questions- 1. Why did you use vegetable oil and not Mustard oil? 2. Why did you add ginger later and not when you were frying onion and garlic?

[@hridayamusings4445]

Long frying of ginger in oil gives a subtle bitter taste … even i have seen my mother avoid frying ginger for long …..

[@souptikbiswas6603]

If you use the fish spine in the stock, it will become further delicious! Also would shallow frying be better than deep frying?

[@BongEats]

We use the skin and bones for a delicious kata chochchori. Deep frying at a high temperature is our preferred method because it browns the outside quickly without cooking the insides too much. Takes less time than shallow frying in batches too.

[@gitanjaliroy6235]

@@BongEats post video of the katachochori too

[@thelostsoul4523]

@@BongEats absolutely agree with the deep frying part. The idea is to just have a crispy outside and soft inside. Also, my mom used to use the spine and skin part to make a delicious chaal chochori with aloo and begun! Yum!

Brilliant! The cutting of the fish was also authentic. These days fishmongers keep the backbone on the other side to increase the size of the "koor" (slices of the stomach of the Chitol) with which the "chochchori" (mustard sauce curry) is made. By the way what have you done to the leftover skin and bones after making the "Muithya" (from closed fists(?) or "Kola" as Sylhetis say (probably because the logs resembles the shape of banana)? Baangals don't throw them away!

Wonderful video but so different from our family recipe. We don't use potato as a binder, preferring to have a more "pure" muithya. Also, the gravy is a lighter version dhone jeere lonka, and no onion and garlic. Also, did you use the bones to make kata chochori with brinjal? That's like the ultimate secondary dish out of Chitol.

[@samarpitabhattacharya5953]

Chitol muithya gravy tastes odd without garlic My family doesn't use onion and garlic in fish maintaining the old brahmin method of cooking nonveg, still particularly in this recipe I think garlic is much needed
