Answer 6

They do eat alot of fish, in curries or spicy fried ones with rice, its nice fried in mustard oil or start the curry off with it but its really bad for you. They put the fish heads in the curry often as well, there's loads of different types of fish in b/desh and in bengali shops so might as well eat them eh?! Also watery stew type curries chicken or meat always with the bones left in and quite alot of oil. At each meal there's one or two types  of rice, veg dishes (bhajis and dhal) and then normally a fish one then a chicken or meat curry. My favourite one is the chicken with seeds out of the jack fruit in (yummy) The older generation like curries made from dried fish which is quite strong and smelly, and people seem to like sour and bitter tastes rather than sweet stuff. The stuff in the restaurants really isn't bengali cooking at all  x

Answer 7

In the countryside still a lot of dried fish

Answer 8

yes they eat a lot of fish as 80% of the land is covered under water. sorry i cant help anymore.

Answer 9

Do you know where i live in ???

:)

bangladesh ~!

Answer 10

It is a mis understood by many that Bengali's eat alot of Fish....I am not bengali. but they are known for eating alot of Fish because there country is flooding and is surrounded by alot of fish.

Homeland Bengali's do eat more fish than other items because it is cheaper, now would you be embarrased of eating a specific food to survive?No. 2nd of all Bengali's away from Bangladesh eat alot of Rice and eat a variety of items.

Thats all i wanted to say

Peace

Answer 11

One Bangladeshi curry that I love is chicken tikka massala. Its fantastic! http://farm1.static.flickr.com/71/213770...

Answer 12

Our foods are similar to Indian cuisine and whoever said Bengalis (a whole group of people) eat a lot of fish are wrong, it's only those who live in Bangladesh because the country is surrounded by water. Some people from other 'Desi' countries say that to have a bit of fun LOL.

90% of Indian restaurants serve Bangladeshi food. So yeah, we have a variety of flavors but we like spices a lot haha. Bengalis tend to eat alot of rice...

No one can resist Bangladeshi curries :P Bishi morzuh which means too tasty

Edit: Yeah, I got it from the BBC aswell but its not a well known fact. But who cares? India and Bangladesh are completely the same to me lol
