Fish intestine recipe (masor patu)

People of Assam love fish. Assamese people also love to eat fish intestines (masor patu). Fried rice with fish intestines is a very popular fish intestine recipe. But I am using here brinjal or eggplant instead of rice.
Before cooking, clean the fish intestine under running water properly. Fish intestine taste a little bitter. So some people may not like the taste. The recipe requires a little more oil to cook.

The bhoot jolokias are two or three inches long and starts out green in colour. It turns red only when ripened. This ripened ghost chilli in the first bite gives an intense sweet chilli flavor. The heat doesn't kick at the beginning. As you started chewing it, the heat kicks in and your mouth started burning together starts sweating and watery eyes.

Don't touch ghost chilli with bare hands after cutting.
