Batashi (Scientific name: Glossogobius giuris) is a small freshwater fish native to rivers and canals of Bangladesh, West Bengal, and Assam. It’s a soft-boned fish with subtle flavor and high digestibility — ideal for children, the elderly, and light eaters.
Locally known as "Batashi Maach", it’s often prepared in mustard gravy, simple tomato-based curry, or lightly pan-fried.
