I am very much fond of sea food especially fish. Here’s my fish curry and fry recipe.
Ingredients
1) Fish
2)
Chilly Powder
Turmeric powder
Ginger
Garlic
Salt
3)
Coconut grated
Small onion
4) Curry leaves, green chilly
5) Tamarind
6) Water
Fish Curry
Make a thick paste of ingredients mentioned in (2) and (3). Mix enough water and tamarind (kudam puli is the best.If not available add normal tamarind. In central Kerala we use kudam puli only). Boil the gravy and add cleaned fish pieces. Cook it in law flame for 15-20 minutes. After 10-12 minutes you can check whether its ready by tasting. Add some curry leaves and fried green chilly if you like.
Use a clay pot to make fish curry. It will taste authentic.
Fish Fry
Mix some black pepper with ingredients mentioned in (2) and make a thick paste. Apply this on the fish pieces and keep it for 10-15 minutes. Heat a frying pan and pour enough cooking oil and fry it (please don’t deep fry- fry 1 side at a time).
I know your mouth is watering- i don’t argue that its because of my tasty recipe. I know. But these photos are really tempting.
