Patra Ni Machchi Recipe

Recipe By Slurrp

Patra Ni Machchi is a traditional Parsi dish from India, consisting of marinated fish wrapped in banana leaves and steamed to perfection. The fish is coated with a flavorful mixture of coconut, coriander, mint, and spices, which infuses the fish with a delicious aroma and taste. The banana leaves not only add a unique fragrance to the dish but also help to keep the fish moist and tender. This dish is typically served as an appetizer or as part of a main course in Parsi cuisine.
