Mexim Deshi Puti | 250g
A frozen block of premium, small freshwater olive barbs (Deshi Puti fish) sourced from Bangladesh, block-packed to preserve their traditional taste and delicate texture.
Sourced directly from the clean freshwater rivers, streams, and natural floodplains of Bangladesh, Mexim Frozen Deshi Puti brings a fundamental and beloved household staple of Bengali cuisine straight to your kitchen. Scientifically known as Puntius, Deshi Puti are small indigenous barb fish highly celebrated for their rich, distinctively earthy flavor profile and high nutritional value—being packed with lean proteins, vitamins, and essential minerals. The small fish are carefully gathered at peak freshness, thoroughly cleaned, and immediately blast-frozen into a 250g block to retain their natural sweetness and lock out any artificial preservatives. Highly versatile and quick to cook, this fish readily absorbs regional spices. It is exceptionally well-suited for preparing iconic, authentic dishes like a spicy Puti Macher Chorchori (a dry, slow-simmered mix with finely sliced potatoes, onions, and green chilies), aromatic mustard-infused Bhuna curries, or simply marinated in turmeric and salt for a wonderfully crispy pan-fry.Sourced directly from the clean freshwater rivers, streams, and natural floodplains of Bangladesh, Mexim Frozen Deshi Puti brings a fundamental and beloved household staple of Bengali cuisine straight to your kitchen.
