Hi, Rosh!Paprika powder must be piriyan mulak poti.Hope this helps…
FANTASTIC RECIPE…me and my husband loved it.Without much oil and time an excellent dish is ready…..thank u
This recipe tasted very nice. i tried cooking the fish wrapped in plaintain leaves on a hot plate, turned out very well.
Sting ray would be a better choice of fish.
