Arctic char is a member of the Salmonid family. It resembles a Salmon in appearance but is genetically more closely linked to Trout.

If you feel like making a Fish curry that is totally different from the usual but easy enough to prepare then this is for you!This dish comes from the Eastern states of Bihar and West Bengal in India where fresh fish is available in abundance.The mustard sauce is one of the most popular preparations in these regions and I’ve grown-up having this Fish Curry all the time.My mom is a great cook and its one of her signature dishes!Traditionally Whole Mustard seeds are ground to make a paste along with green chillies,but I’ve modified Mom’s version by going for Coleman’s English Mustard Paste for ease and convenience. 
Mustard and Fish are a marriage made in heaven since they complement each other beautifully. The use of Nigella Seeds is very important in this sauce,since it imparts that almost smoky flavor to the sauce.The garlic balances the bitterness of the mustard and the coriander adds a little earthy spiciness to the curry.The Amchur Powder (dry mango powder)is also a necessary ingredient to finish off this dish and should not be missed.If you don’t have Amchur,you could substitute Lemon Juice instead.Its one of the most delicious sauces you’ll ever try.
