Patra ni machhi · Mumbai
Pomfret fillets coated in green coconut chutney, wrapped in banana leaf and steamed. The Parsi wedding-table fish dish. Editor's TableJourney pick.
Patra ni machhi is one of the four canonical Parsi wedding-table dishes (alongside sali boti, dhansak, lagan nu custard). The Parsi community brought the steaming-in-leaf technique from Persia; the green chutney is local Bombay coriander, coconut and chilli. Jimmy Boy still cooks it the wedding-table way.
