Lizardfish in white background

Harpadon nehereus, (common names include Bombay duck, bummalo, bombil, bombili, boomla, lote, loitta) is a species of lizardfish. The fish is sometimes dried, as well as dried and salted before it is consumed. After drying, the odour of the fish is extremely powerful, and it is usually transported in air-tight containers. The Bombay duck is a popular food item in certain areas of India particularly in Maharashtra. It is consumed as a dried fish in Sri Lanka, either tempered, fried or cooked as a curry. Fresh fish are usually fried as bombay duck fry, or cooked in curry.
