FISH MULAKITTATHU

Fish Mulakittathu

Kerala is one of the top procedures of the fish. Naturally fish plays a major role in malayalees food culture. Here is the recipe of a Kerala fish curry without coconut. In my recipe I used kashmiri red chilly powder. Because I love that red color in my curry. You can add red chilly powder instead of that.

Instead of kokum star (kodam puli) I recommend to use tamarind for better taste. And also use manchatti for the preparation of the curry.
