My amma swears by adding a bit of jaggery to the tamarind in fish curry, says it cuts the oiliness. I tried it last week with some rohu from the old bus stand market—baaga turned out well, even if my cousin on call laughed, saying we’re making Telugu royyala iguru in a Bengali style.

Ah, jaggery is a masterstroke, avunu—my amma used to say it brings out the 'madhuryam' in the sour, like a peacemaker in a fight. Rohu from the old bus stand market is always good, chala fresh, but I’d worry the Bengali style might make the curry too sweet for our royyala iguru; still, if it worked, it worked—khairiyat?
