Katla Head / Muro

Katla is an absolute crown jewel of Bengali cuisine, celebrated for its thick, meaty texture and rich flavor. The prized head pieces (matha) are legendary, traditionally slow-cooked in festive dishes like Macher Matha Diye Mung Dal or rich spicy curries. For any true Bengali food lover, a well-prepared Katla head is the ultimate comfort food and a mandatory centerpiece for special feasts.
