NOTICE

Notes:

1. You may add dill inside the rice if you wish with the tomato puree. I didnt add coz I didnt have at the time of cooking.

2. Adding tomato puree is according how red do you like your rice. I love my rice red so I add more.

3. The amount of the rice is according to your usual rice cooking and the same withwater. Put less water if you add more of tomato puree, later on you could add water if needed according to your rice.

4. I used pangasius fish since it is easy to get here and I like the light taste of it.

5. You may use water instead of milk for the fish but i prefer milk.
