Physical Traits & Texture
Bhetki has a long, torpedo-shaped body, silver-grey skin, and large flaky fillets inside. Its flesh is mild, white, and firm, but softens beautifully when cooked — ideal for pan searing, baking, or curry.
Since it’s low in bones, especially when cut as fillets, it’s a popular option for those who dislike picking through spines.
