Singara Fish

Singara Fish (Giant River Catfish)

A true delicacy from the fresh river waters, Singara is highly sought after for its premium taste and "boneless" feel. It is a large, scale-less fish that offers thick, meaty chunks, making it one of the most convenient and enjoyable freshwater fishes to eat.

Best For: Amritsari Fish Fry, thick Masala Gravies, or grilled Fish Tikka. Because it is so meaty and virtually bone-free, it is the perfect choice for making Fish Pakoras.

Chef’s Tip: To elevate your Singara fry, marinate it with a touch of Ajwain (Carom seeds) and gram flour (besan). The nuttiness of Ajwain perfectly complements the sweet, clean flavor of this river fish and helps in digestion.
