Fish Cutlets Curry

Myanmar has big rivers and broad chaungs teeming with fish. Naturally, the Myanmar people are fond of fish, especially the fresh-water kind. Many tasty dishes have fish as the base, using one or the other of the many species. These dishes have the characteristic taste of Myanmar gravied dishes, steamed fish or deep-fried. Occasionally, a Myanmar dish may taste foreign when rusks or beaten egg are used to coat the fish to make fried fish balls or cutlets.
