Rohu

Labeo Rohita, commonly known as Rohu, is part of the family Cyprinidae, which includes several species of freshwater fish known for their commercial importance in the aquaculture industry.

The Rohu fish is indigenous to the riverine and pond waters of the Indian subcontinent, particularly found in India, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Pakistan. Its historical significance dates back to ancient times when it was harvested by local fishermen for its nutritional and economic value.

Rohu is prized for its mild, slightly sweet flavour and tender texture. Its meat is firm yet flaky, making it an excellent choice for a variety of culinary applications, including frying, baking, and currying.

The fish's mild taste allows it to pair well with a wide range of spices and seasonings, making it a versatile ingredient in both traditional and contemporary recipes.
