The benefits of healthy eating are these days being given more publicity than ever before and there are many reasons for this. There are many illnesses associated with a poor diet and there is a cost to the overall economy as people suffer from conditions such as heart disease and high blood pressure. Although we’re always being counseled to follow healthy eating habits, it is also easier than ever to rely on fast food and other convenience items that are not healthy for us. It is likely that many people feel it will take lots of effort to eat a healthy diet or that they have to make a large scale change to the way they live. In reality, however, just making a few minor changes can positively impact everyday eating habits.
You can see results without needing to remove foods from your diet or make considerable changes immediately. Even more crucial than wholly changing your diet is just substituting healthy eating choices whenever you can. Sooner or later, you will discover that you actually prefer to consume healthy foods after you have eaten that way for a while. Gradually, your eating habits will change and your new eating habits will completely replace the way you ate before.
Hence, it should be somewhat obvious that it’s not at all difficult to add healthy eating to your life.

The ingredients needed to prepare Pabda Paturi (with Taro/ kochu/Alvi leaves) and Pabda Bhappa:
- Take 500gms- Pabda fish
- Get 35gms - Yellow and black mustard (mixed)
- Prepare As needed Taro/ Kochu /Alvi leaves (enough to wrap the fishes)
- You need as per taste Salt
- Use 2 + 2 tbsps + 2-3tbsps more Mustard oil
- Use 1 tbsp Aam Kasundi (Bengali mango mustard sauce)(optional)
- Prepare 1 tsp Turmeric
- Take 25 gms (gross weight) Ginger (make it into paste)
- Take 2 tbsps Curd
- Provide as required Green / red raw Chillies as preferred by you (4/5 or more)
- Take as needed Little Water to grind the mustard seeds
- Provide as per need Water to steam in a steamer (I use MOMO steamer)
Steps to make Pabda Paturi (with Taro/ kochu/Alvi leaves) and Pabda Bhappa:
- Clean and Wash the fish and sprinkle and apply Turmeric and salt and keep it aside. As the fishes were quite long I cut two fishes into half from the middle.
- Make a paste out of the ginger. In a mixer grinder jar add the mustard seeds with little salt, little water enough to help in grinding the mustard seeds, grind with small pulse / intervals (do not grind at one go otherwise it will be bitter), add few raw green chillies as per your taste, the ginger paste, curd, Turmeric, 2 tbsps of mustard oil and give it a quick mix in the jar to form a homogeneous smooth masala paste.
- Pour the masala paste (mustard mix) in a steel bowl or plate and add 2 tbsps more of mustard oil and give a quick mix with your fingers, then take one fish piece at a time and apply the mustard paste on it and place it on the taro leaves (here I used two leaves as the leaves were small overlapping each other with pointed ends outwards)with generous amount of the paste and add one chilli and little more mustard oil on top.
- Now fold the leaves nicely and tie it with a clean string so that it doesn't open or have openings (make sure the leaves doesn't tear). If you don't have enough leaves, simply put the fish and the paste in a steel dabba (Tiffin box with tight lid) or wrap the plate tightly with aluminium foil (I have used three aluminium foils covered from top then from and again from bottom and finally from the top so that extra moisture doesn't enter…. otherwise your mustard paste will become watery).
- Now place this in a steamer and keep it on top of steaming boiling hot water and steam for 20 minutes with full flame on high and then put off the flame let it rest for 10 minutes in the steamer. Serve it hot with steaming hot rice along with more chillies and mustard oil (if you prefer). Bon Appetit!!!
