Bhetki Fry- Tasty Bengali Snack from the UP Girl; Bengali Fish Cutlet; Fish Recipe;

Bengali bhetki fish fry recipe aka Bengali style crispy fish cutlet recipe step by step with pictures. Bengali fish fry means a deep-fried crunchy fish cutlet. For making this recipe, masala marinated boneless fish fillet(mainly bhetki fillet) coated in breadcrumbs & deep fried in vegetable oil unless crisp. Among Bengalis, this fish fry is a common name as a perfect evening snack to the wonderful starter, hugely popular in Kolkata aka West Bengal as street food.
Though Bengalis describe it as fish fry for ages, it’s actually a recipe for the crispy fish cutlet. In this cutlet recipe, boneless fish fillet basically boneless bhetki fillet is being used to well marinate in a combined masala containing lemon juice and onion, ginger, garlic, green chilli paste, then nicely coated in breadcrumbs to deep fry it in vegetable oil.
Authentic Bengali fish fry aka fish cutlet is mainly prepared with bhetki aka vetki fish(known as Indian sea bass in English). Bhetki is perfect for making this fish cutlet for 3 reasons, 1. bhetki is a soft meat fish, 2. it is delicious in taste 3. bhetki has fewer bones, so can make boneless fillets. That’s why their jugalbandi(যুগলবন্ধী) got hit in Indian food history. That might be the reason Bengalis can not think about fish fry(aka cutlet) without bhetki fish. Since then we Bengali believe the authentic taste of fish cutlet only comes with bhetki, not any other fish.
Bengalis are popular for being love to eat fish and that is the basic reason for our experiments with fish recipes. And I personally believe recipes like fish cutlet is part of the successful experiments of Bengali kitchen. Generally, Indian fish fry indicates the recipe where well marinated whole fish or fish pieces in spices & used to deep fry in oil. Even in bong’s kitchen, simply fish fry indicates the same as a common Indian fish fry recipe. But when we specifically talk about this Bengali starter fish fry, this dish is totally different from other states of India.
As per the history of Bengali fish fry, it was probably invented in the British era when Kolkata was the capital of India. Though initially, it was only prepared in the kitchen of modern Bengali society, later different cafes in Kolkata started making this recipe. And they earned fame for being such interesting Bengali starters. Mitra cafe, Dilkhusa cabin, Basanta cabin, Allen kitchen, and many more old traditional Kolkata cafes from the pre-independence period are the names that introduced us to this wonderful fish starter.
So lets cook the same together. For the process go through the video.
