Rohu fish

Rohu is characterized by its silver-colored body, with a slightly greenish hue on the back. It has a deep, compressed body and a relatively large head. Rohu fish is omnivorous and primarily feeds on plankton, insects, crustaceans, and aquatic plants.

In culinary terms, Rohu is highly prized for its delicate, mildly sweet flavor and firm, white flesh. It is used in a variety of dishes, including curries, fries, grills, and steamed preparations. Rohu curry, in particular, is a popular dish in Bengali and North Indian cuisine, where it's often cooked with spices, tomatoes, onions, and sometimes yogurt or coconut milk.
