- Chili powder (2 teaspoons)
- Ginger paste (1 teaspoon)

Method
- First, cut and wash the hilsa, rub lightly with salt and turmeric, fry, and set aside.
- Heat oil in a pot and add chopped onion. When the onion softens, add all the spices except the kaffir lime leaves and green chilies, and fry, adding a little water if needed so nothing burns.
