Shing machher jhol recipe: This is the fish curry that is made in our family for someone is recovering from an illness. There is a whole category of recipes in Bengali that are called "pothyo" (পথ্য), meaning food for patients to go alongside medicine. Singi machh, or indeed all jiol fish fish are highly nutritious and are often traditionally prescribed for convalescing patients.

Shingi machh (শিঙি বা শিং মাছ) is a type of jiol machh (জিওল মাছ)— fish that can stay alive outside water for a long period of time because they have a lung-like secondary respiratory organ. They are always sold live. Magoor (মাগুর), shol (শোল), taki (টাকি), koi (কই), etc., too fall under this category.

This recipe is best made with any jiol fish, but can be made with any live freshwater such as chara pona, shor puti, tilapia, etc. too. A version of this recipe is also known as kabiraji jhol, where the chillies are replaced with black pepper or long peppers. We will make a separate video on kabiraji jhol later.
