Red Snapper (Kanalcha)

₨ 1,790
The real Red Snapper is Kanalcha (Lutjanus campechanus), a vibrant, reddish-pink fish known for its firm, meaty texture. In Pakistan, however, Heera is mistakenly referred to as Red Snapper. Heera is actually the Golden Snapper (Lutjanus johnii), which is lighter in color with a golden or yellowish hue. Kanalcha is cheaper than Heera, yet many sellers market Kanalcha under the name of Heera to fetch a higher price. Kanalcha offers a robust, mildly sweet flavor, perfect for grilling, baking, or pan-frying, whereas Heera (Golden Snapper) has a more delicate taste with a slightly different texture.
