How are you all? I hope you are all well. By the grace of Allah, I am very well. Today I will share with you a recipe for Pangasius fish with gourd leaves. This is a traditional and special dish; here I have made Pangasius fish and bara with spices using gourd leaves. This dish is commonly seen in Bengali cuisine. The fish mixture is placed on gourd leaves, which are rubbed with onion, garlic, ginger, turmeric, chilli, and other spices. Then it is wrapped in the leaves and fried or baked. This type of food is very tasty to eat with rice, and it is also full of nutrients.

First, I took chopped onion, dried chilli, garlic, and cumin in a bowl. Then I made a paste of the dried chillies with the help of a stone.

Then I collected some gourd leaves from the gourd tree in my rooftop garden. Then after the spices were pasted, I took some pieces of fish here and took the gourd leaves together.

Once it was done, I added turmeric powder and salt. Then to enhance the flavour, I added mustard oil on top of the mashed spices.

Then I mixed all the mixtures together and then mixed the pieces of pangasius fish together and put them in one place. Then I placed the fish and spice mixtures in the middle of the gourd leaves.

Then I put a pot on the stove to fry them and put soybean oil on it. Then I wrapped the fish and spices and gourd leaves nicely and put them in the soybean oil to fry.

Then I pressed them gently on the stove and fried them nicely. If you want, you can use mustard oil. Then I served it during lunch, and I wrote my community name and my username on a paper and took a picture.
