Instructions to make Bhakura Machha Bhaja / Catla Fish Fry:

1. Clean and wash the fish pieces and keep them aside in a large bowl. In a small bowl/plate prepare the masala mix for marination. Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, salt to taste, mix them well and keep aside. Now using your fingers take some masala mix and rub on all the sides of each fish piece. Cover and keep aside for marination for 15 mins.
2. In a flat pan, heat the oil on low flame till you get the smell of mustard. Mustard oil needs to be heated for sometime before use, otherwise the dish will not taste good. Once the oil is sufficiently hot and smell starts coming then transfer the oil to a bowl and keep it aside for use. (If using olive oil then you can directly pour it by skipping this process. Traditionally mustard oil is used for this dish because of it's flavour.) Then place the fish pieces on the pan.
3. Now with the help of a teaspoon pour half teaspoon oil on each fish piece (you can pour more or less oil depending on the size of the fish piece). Then pour 1 teaspoon oil around the pan. Cover with lid and cook for 3mins. Remove the lid and keep aside. Turn the fish pieces by using tongs, repeat the process of adding oil on the fish pieces and pan, cover and cook for 3mins. Remove lid and keep aside.
4. Turn the fish pieces using tongs, fry for 2 mins without covering the lid. Now again turn them to the other side and fry for 2mins. Fry till the fish pieces get roasted on each side.
5. Serve hot as an appetizer or can be served as an accompaniment during main.  You can serve it plain or squeeze in some lemon juice and serve it by garnishing with cilantro leaves & onion rings. Serve with any Indian rice or bread variety during main with other accompaniments as per your preference. Goes very well with steamed rice and dal fry. - - *(Please note: cook time will vary based on stove and utensils used) - - Try it out and post your feedback.

I usually cook Besara items with a paste of mustard, garlic and chillies. But today I added two pastes - mustard and chilly paste and garlic and ginger paste. Wash and drain water from the fish. Fry till the onions brown with the fish.

Foods That Make You Happy

Most of us have been conditioned to think that comfort foods are not good and to be avoided. But if your comfort food is candy or junk food this holds true. At times, comfort foods can be very healthy and good for us to consume. Some foods honestly do raise your mood when you consume them. If you seem to be a little bit down and you need an emotional pick me up, try several of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, can be really terrific at dealing with depression. Just make sure that you don’t get rid of the yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most important in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, particularly the egg yolks, are full of B vitamins. B vitamins can be terrific for elevating your mood. This is because the B vitamins increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that affect how you feel). Consume an egg and cheer up!

Make a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and so on are all great for helping to raise your mood. This is possible as these foods are rich in magnesium which raises serotonin production. Serotonin is the “feel good” natural substance that dictates to your brain how you feel all the time. The more of it you have, the happier you are going to feel. Not only that but nuts, in particular, are a terrific source of protein.

Cold water fish are great for eating if you want to battle depression. Cold water fish like tuna, trout and wild salmon are rich in DHA and omega-3 fats. DHA and omega-3s are two things that truly help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can earnestly boost your mood.

Some grains are actually excellent for repelling bad moods. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all good for helping you be in a happier state of mind. They help you feel full as well which can really help to make your mood better. Feeling famished can be awful! These grains can elevate your mood because it’s easy for your body to digest them. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps promote a rise in your glucose levels which in turn kicks up your mood to a happier place.

Green tea is excellent for moods. You were simply expecting to read that in this article, weren’t you? Green tea is rich in an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies have shown that this amino acid actually induces brain waves. This will better your brain’s concentration while simultaneously calming the rest of your body. You were already aware that green tea could help you become better. Now you know that it helps you to lift your moods too!

So you see, you don’t need junk food or foods that are bad for you so you can feel better! Try some of these instead!
