Catla Fish Head (Macher Matha)

The head of the Catla fish, known as Macher Matha in Bengali, is a prized ingredient in traditional Bengali cooking. Larger than Rohu, the Catla head has more flesh and a distinct flavour that adds richness to every dish. It is considered a delicacy and is often used for festive and everyday recipes alike.
