Notes
-
Use your preferred choice of fish.
-
You can use prawns or crab for the same recipe.
-
You can lightly fry the fish which is rub with salt and turmeric before putting in the curry.
-
You use coconut oil also which gives a nice flavour and aroma to the fish curry.
-
You can use both fresh and frozen fish. But I prefer using fresh fish.
-
Traditionally fish curries are made in earthen pot especially in villages. If you have them use it or otherwise, regular pot will work too.
