Live Fish tastes much better

Usually I do not get live fish always - by the time I go they are all sold out. I do not want to sacrifice my exercise to go very early in the morning. Today somehow, I got a chance to get a live fish from market. I did take the opportunity to shoot some visuals and edited them for you. These are all cultivated fish - unlike the happiest fishes from the dam. The dam fish is more tasty - they also weigh more - 4/5 kg minimum. But they never reach market , they sold out there itself. The government is giving nice subsidy for fish farming - that is why we see these live fishes. The vendors bring them in a small truck - they put a big plastic on the back side of a mini carrier and then fill it with water and a pump and leave these fishes inside. And then they give it to these sellers , who keep them inside small containers. Do you know how to recognize if a fish is fresh or not ? Usually people look at the gills , but actually the eyes are the best indicator of freshness. You can check both as well.

Me and my son decided not to cook anything special - instead just taste the fish fry (because the lady does not eat on any other day except Wednesday) - authentic fish taste alone. Just clean it, put some turmeric powder, salt, mix it well and fry it with mustard oil. That's it - quite simple isn't it ? When served hot, you can eat a lot.
