Dry Bombay Duck Recipe

September 26, 2013 by maria 16 Comments

Easy Dry Bombay Duck Recipe!

This recipe is easy to make with simple steps. If you have dried bombay duck stored in your house….. You can cook in any part of the year. Mostly dried fish like Bombay duck, Dries prawns etc are stored in rainy season in most of the coastal regions. Because during monsoon it becomes difficult to buy fish hence they store dried fish in large quantities in their house. This Dry Bombay Duck Recipe is yum, mouth watering. It can be eaten with bread, pav, rice or bhakri. I love this recipe and I am sure you would love them too!

    You know, I honestly took this to be a non-veg recipe and was wondering why the duck in the picture did not even remotely resemble duck meat !! :)))

    I guess bombay duck is some kind of vegetable.. right?

      Mrs S Bombay Duck is a fish which you get only in Mumbai and no where else. It’s a soft fish and tastes great. You should try them once.
