How often do you eat fish?

I eat fish quite often especially in winter. In cold weather my family cooks fish once or twice a week. In summer we eat it less often maybe once every two weeks. My parents say fish is very good for healths because it gives us energy and is full of protein i enjoyt eating fish with my family at lunch or dinner. Sometimes we also cook fish when we have guests. Fish is a special food for us and we all enjoy it together.

What is your favorite fish?

My favorite fish is Rohu. It is a freshwater fish that we find easily in Pakistan. Rohu is soft tasty and full of flavor. It has a great texture when cooked properly. I also like Pomfrets and Surmai but Rohu will always be my top favorites i grew up eating it and it reminds me of good family memories. Every times my mother makes Rohu i feels very happy and excited.

What is your favorites way to eats fish: grilled, baked, fried, or some thing else?

My favorites way to eat fish is frieds. Fried fish is crispy on the outside and soft insides. I like the crunchy layer that comes from the masala and flour. It tastes even better with lemon juice and green chutney. Sometimes we also grill fish during outdoor picnics or on cold nights but fried fish is my first choice. It is simple quick and full of flavor. When the fish is hot and crispy i feels so satisfied after eating it.

What is your favorite side dish to accompany fish?

The best sides dish with fish is plain boiled rice and mint chutney the softs rice and spicy chutney balance the taste of fried fish. I also enjoy salad with onion cucumber and tomato. Sometimes when the fish is cooked in curry we eat it with roti or naan. But with fried fish i always prefer rice and chutney. A littles bits of lemons juice on the fish makes it even more delicious.
