Ilishmacher Matha Diye Chalkumro is a traditional Bengali dish where chalkumro (ash gourd) is cooked with the head of the hilsa fish (ilish mach). It's a flavorful dish that combines the richness of hilsa with the mildness of ash gourd. Here’s how to make it:
Ingredients:
Ilish macher matha (Hilsa fish head): 1, cleaned and cut into pieces
Chalkumro (Ash gourd): 500 grams, peeled and cut into small cubes
Nigella seeds (Kalonji): 1/2 teaspoon
Turmeric powder: 1/2 teaspoon
Red chili powder: 1/2 teaspoon
Green chilies: 2-3, slit
Mustard oil: 3-4 tablespoons
Salt: to taste
Sugar: 1/2 teaspoon (optional)
Water: as needed
Instructions:
1. Prepare the fish head:
Clean and wash the ilish macher matha thoroughly.
Rub the fish head with a little turmeric powder and salt.
2. Fry the fish head:
Heat mustard oil in a pan until it starts smoking, then reduce the heat.
Add the fish head pieces and fry them until golden brown and crispy on all sides. Remove them from the pan and set aside.
3. Cook the chalkumro:
In the same pan, add a little more mustard oil if needed.
Add the nigella seeds (kalonji) and let them splutter.
Add the chopped chalkumro (ash gourd) and stir well.
Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix everything well.
4. Simmer with the fish head:
Cover the pan and let the chalkumro cook on medium heat until it softens.
Add the fried fish head pieces to the pan.
Add a little water to create a light gravy and cover again. Let it simmer on low heat until the chalkumro is fully cooked and the flavors have melded together.
5. Add final touches:
Add slit green chilies and sugar (if using) to balance the flavors.
Cook for a few more minutes until the oil starts to separate from the gravy.
6. Serve:
Serve hot with steamed rice.
This dish is a lovely way to use the fish head and adds a unique depth of flavor to the mild chalkumro. Enjoy your Ilishmacher Matha Diye Chalkumro with a side of rice!
