About Pomfret

Silver Pomfret — called Paplet in Maharashtra — is arguably the most loved fish along India's west coast. Its distinctive flat shape and near-boneless flesh make it a favourite for frying, steaming and grilling. NaavFresh delivers fresh Silver Pomfret sourced the same morning from Navi Mumbai's Sassoon Docks, cleaned and cut to your specification.

How to Cook Pomfret

Tawa Fry

Score the fish diagonally, apply a paste of red chilli, turmeric, coriander and garlic. Pan-fry 3–4 min per side on high heat until the skin is golden and crisp.

Recheado Fry (Goan Style)

Stuff scored pomfret with recheado masala (red chillies, vinegar, garlic, ginger). Shallow-fry 4–5 minutes per side. The stuffing caramelises into the flesh.

Steamed with Soy & Ginger

Steam whole pomfret over high heat for 8–10 minutes. Drizzle with a soy-ginger sauce and garnish with spring onions for a light, clean preparation.
