Kerala Style Fish Curry with Coconut Milk | with step by step description, photos & video. A traditional Malabari dish and is a tad spicy curry. This curry tastes great with kappa, appam, idiyappam, puttu, chapathi, and rice. Let us explore the exclusive taste of Malabari spices seeped into the juicy fish pieces.
Most importantly, it has a signature taste of kudampuli (dried malabar tamarind) known as cocum and coconut milk. However, compared to other fish recipes, nothing beats the Kottayam style Kerala fish curry with Malabar tamarind.
Kerala Style Fish Curry with Coconut Milk | with step by step description, photos & video. Another main ingredient is coconut milk. All used to have a confusion of using coconut milk along with tamarind. Will the tamarind curdle coconut milk? No need to worry, if you keep on stirring until you add fish. Stirring the curry prevents it from forming curdles.
This fish curry recipe comes with special additions of cocum and curry leaves, simmered with fish and coconut milk. I am combining the 3 extracts (thick, medium & thin milk) of coconut milk. Furthermore, I would like to highlight our other fish recipe collections.
