From smoky banana leaf wraps to tangy bamboo shoot broths, I cook these just like we do back home. ## Photos and videos - ![Small fish prepared in the Naga style, wrapped and cooked in a banana leaf.

When you order the banana leaf steamed fish, it arrives with that distinct smoky aroma, and the bamboo shoot broth brings an earthy, tangy kick that is pure comfort. Because I don't use shortcuts, these flavours are as close to my motherland as you can get. ### Real Tribal Flavours, No Shortcuts Cooking fish is an art, and in my kitchen, we keep it simple. Back in the Northeast, we rely on the freshness of the water and the earthiness of ingredients like bamboo shoot and king chilli. You won't find generic masalas here. When I steam fish in a banana leaf, it is not just about cooking it; it is about locking in the moisture and letting that natural smoke infuse every bite. It is a clean, healthy way to eat that feels light but leaves you satisfied. If you prefer something with more kick, the fish with bamboo shoot is a must-try. The bamboo shoot adds a tangy, fermented depth that balances perfectly with the delicate texture of the fish. ### Why Choose My Fish Dishes? * **Authentic Ingredients:** I source organic bamboo shoot and chillies to ensure the taste is spot on. * **Traditional Methods:** Whether it is a simple boil or a slow steam, the focus is always on preserving the original flavour profile of the fish. * **Perfect for Thalis:** These fish preparations are star inclusions in my Assamese and Naga thalis, making them a complete, soul-satisfying meal. Whether you are missing home or just curious about tribal cuisine, drop by or order in. I cook it fresh when you order, so expect the same quality you would get if you were sitting at my table. ## About The Taste of Northeast I am the face behind The Taste of Northeast India, and I am just someone who loves sharing my culture through food. I do not run this like a big business; I cook because I want Mumbai to know what real Northeast food tastes like. Come eat with us and feel right at home.
