King Fish Kofta Curry

King fish kofta
In Chennai king fish is always available in market. My hubby and daughter love to eat fish but without bones. Being Odia Rohu is first choice but then again the problem is to remove the bones from the fish. 

 If we ask the fishmonger to remove bones from rohu fish ,they directly say No because of the long queue.

 It's better to buy one bone fish. 
And that's what I did.
