Ayer Fish
Ayer fish, also known as Long-whiskered Catfish, is a popular freshwater species found across rivers and floodplains in South and Southeast Asia — particularly in Bangladesh, India, Myanmar, and Thailand. This fish is cherished for its soft, flavorful meat, low bone content, and rich, oily texture. Known for its distinct whiskers and firm flesh, Ayer is a favorite in traditional Bengali and Burmese cuisine.

Uses and Cooking Tips
Known for its tender, flavorful meat and minimal bone structure, Ayer fish is a versatile ingredient suitable for many cuisines:
Ideal for spicy South Asian curries (especially in mustard or tomato-based gravies)
Perfect for grilling or pan-frying with garlic, lime, and pepper
Pairs well with tamarind or green chili marinades
Excellent in slow-cooked stews and clay-pot dishes
