Dahi machha is a traditional Odia dish made of fish in a spicy yogurt-based sauce. It is usually served with rice as an accompaniment. Dahi machha jhola is liberally seasoned with turmeric, onions, garlic, mustard and garam masala. The use of turmeric imparts a yellow colour to the sauce base. Chopped fresh cilantro may be sprinkled on top for added flavour as well as enhanced appearance.
