Dry fish Curry | Garo recipe

Na'kam bitchi or Dry fish and chili curry is an emergency dish to prepare when the kitchen stock has depleted and market days are far. This simple recipe is very easy to make and can be done just under 15 minutes. All you need to have is dry fish, chilies and ginger.
In a rural Garo household dry or fermented fish is a must have item in the kitchen and chilies and ginger are available throughout the year because they are grown in these areas.
This dish made with such simple ingredients is amazingly delicious and good side for bowl of steamed rice.

[@skitzymk9224]

[@EatYourKappa]

You can absolutely make use of those 'nuclear bombs'. Thank you for your kind comments. I am glad my videos are of some use for you.

[@tumpamarak1998]

[@EatYourKappa]

Thank you SO much ... you are awesome.

[@Chiar136]

Can we add onion??

[@EatYourKappa]

Normally it is not added, you can experiment.

[@anbukakashi8231]

Hi i m tripuri,u absolutely right,its called berama,

[@EatYourKappa]

Thank you :)

[@Rossenfolds]

Just made it😁 it's amazing

[@EatYourKappa]

Yay :D

[@puspitadebbarma9961]

can we use powdered form soda instead which is readily available at the markets?

[@EatYourKappa]

You can use it. In fact in cities people mostly use the white cooking soda rather than Lye. But the taste you get is slightly different in case of the organic lye. In one of my video, I have shown how to prepare organic lye using banana stem.

[@luthersangma5214]

In last scene the piece of Leaves u added what was that? Sound doesn't clear on my phone

[@EatYourKappa]

It's coriander leaves. Garo People generally don't use coriander for the dish, I added it as my father wanted coriander leaves :)

[@tiawapanglkr4329]

Lye? How do make it plz

[@jacobeksor6088]

It’s salty fish ?

[@ivarlove9291]

Quite unique name of the dish, don't you have sawtooth coriander there???

[@EatYourKappa]

We have plenty of them growing in our farm, they're everywhere. I used the regular coriander because mom had grown a lot of them and they were all flowering.

[@khalidmerchant14133]

I need that indigenous soda/lye.

[@EatYourKappa]

This is a link to one of my videos where I have shown how to make Lye: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6SvYZZom56NaZI&lc=Ugy3tATNWlV36K1JVLh4AaABAg

Watching from 12,000 km away. I know not whether you are BD Garo or IN Garo. Why I am asking? There is a reason behind, that is your English accent. You do not have West and South Indian English accent. Yet you have around 10% Indian accent at some points. Please tell us the name of the village and show us the village location in the map.
