Goalondo Steamer Chicken Curry

Goalondo steamer Chicken curry is more of a lost recipe that dates back to British rule.
This is a simple curry the boatmen used to cook with limited spices, the chicken is slow-cooked and the flavours turn out to be gorgeous. It has many names like "Steamer Curry", "Ghater Murgi" but is mostly known as Goalondo chicken curry named after the small town named Goalondo in Bangladesh.
A recipe that takes very few ingredients yet it yields such flavour is bliss.
Try out this recipe and have a wonderful time with your friends and family.

Yellow Fish Curry

  This fish curry is my mother's recipe, and it is quite different from the normal mustard fish or "shorshe maach". The use of Bori (dried lentil dumplings) is traditional and it gives a wonderful texture to the curry. The flavour of mustard enhances with time as it cooks along with the fish. We have used Rohu, you can also use Hilsa or Katla for this recipe. It is recommended that the fish cuts from a bigger fish is used, the flavours would be more enhancing, my mother cooks this recipe quite often and every time she cooks, the flavour, the texture remains amazing. Thank you so much mom for sharing this recipe. Share with your friends and family, leave a like if you enjoyed the video, have a wonderful day ! Ingredients 450 g Rohu salt to taste 1 tsp turmeric powder ( during marination ) 10 Dried Lentil Dumplings ( bodi/vadi) 2 tbsp Mustard seeds 1 tbsp poppy seeds 5 green chilies(2 for the paste + 3 slit for the curry) 2 medium onions 2 tomatoes 4 Tbsp Mustard Oil 1/2 ts...
