Pangasius catfish is one of the world’s fastest growing fresh water species in aquaculture. Different research findings have revealed development of various value added products from pangasius having global acceptance and commercial potential. The industry has expanded in terms of production and trade. Basa is being the preferred imported variety of Pangasius. It is now traded to well over 100 countries worldwide due to its mild flavor, whiter meat color and flaky cooked texture. The fish farmers practicing aquaculture have reported reduced profit margin. Also there is a great scope to increase the fish consumption by developing different varieties of innovative value added ready-to-eat, ready-to-cook, ready-to-sever ‘convenience’ fish products, demand for which has increased due to social and cultural changes in recent years. The waste material from Pangasius fish especially skin and bones on proper processing is considered as cheap source of valuable material having several food applications. This paper highlights the different types of value added food products prepared from Pangasius fish.
