RUI MACHER PATURI

Ingredients:

 One big fresh banana leaf, cleaned and cut in to small pieces (about 30cm X 30 cm).
Freshly grounded mustard and coconut paste [Narkel bata].
Salt and turmeric powder.
Two table spoon mustered oil.
And fresh Rui Maach pieces or any fish that you love.
Preparation of Rui Maacher Paturi:

Marinate the fish pieces in salt and turmeric powder for 10min.
Put the steamer and bring the water to boil.
Paste: The best way to get mustard paste is: Soak mustard seed in water for 10mins and then ground it using stone mortar and pestle (instead of bowl shaped mortar we use flat shape). Add the freshly grated coconut and fresh green chilli.

Oil the banana leaf and add one teaspoon of paste in the center.
Put the marinated fish pieces on top of the paste and add one more teaspoon of paste on the top. Add one green chilli on top of the fish pieces.
Wrap the banana leaf and seal the ends with tooth pick or tie it with a cotton thread.
Steam it for 15-20mins Or fried on light flame without use of any oil.
Paturi is ready to serve with hot rice!
